Travel from India to the US restricted due to COVID
President Biden signed a Presidential Proclamation restricting travel to the US from India effective 12:01am on May 4, 2021 for any nonimmigrants physically present in India during the 14-day period preceding their entry or attempted entry to the United States.
The Department of State announced that F-1 students travelling from India on, or August 1, 2021, will automatically qualify for a National Interest Exception (NIE) provided they have a valid F-1 visa.
All other nonimmigrants seeking to enter the US from India will need to demonstrate eligibility for an individual waiver from a US consular post. See ISSO website for more details regarding COVID related travel restriction and waivers.
Welcome, New Students!
