[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have they provided *any* rationale for this, other than just being dickwipes? [/quote]

Nope! Dickwipes indeed![/quote]

Isn't the rationale that this was essentially a pre-existing rule?  That is, you can't get a visa to go to an online school.  This is consistent with that approach but it is applying to high profile "good" schools, not the existing on-line only schools.

Doesn't make it any better, of course, but that seems to be the reasoning.   Treat Harvard like U Phoenix.

And I don't think the quote above applies to hybrid schools that then shut down because of COVID.  There, the student has the VISA and is properly enrolled then all shifts online.  I don't think there is any guidance there, which is a big problem for those trying to make plans.

TO be clear, I think this sucks but I see the thought process.[/quote]

But Harvard is Phoenix U.  And forcing colleges to open up when they don’t they can do so safely during a once in a century pandemic to offer something in person for foreign kids is ridiculous.  Normal people see that colleges are pushing to get back to in person as fast as possible.  But in some places, at some schools, it’s not possible to do this safely.  [/quote]

You clearly have a gripe against brilliant (way more prepared than US kids) international students. [/quote]
