On March 6, President Trump signed a new Executive Order that restricts citizens from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen who do not currently have a valid visa from entering the United States. This order replaces EO 13769 issued on January 27, 2017, and will go into effect on March 16, 2017. The University is continuing to monitor developments related to these Executive Orders to assess their impact on the University of Rochester community and future University students. We will continue University sponsorship and document issuance for all eligible foreign nationals.<\/p>\n
International faculty, students, and staff contribute in innumerable ways to the academic and cultural life of the University of Rochester and make our campus ever better. The University is stronger because of their presence here, and our community and our world benefit from their contributions. We are committed to providing support in every lawful way we can.<\/p>\n
