Visa Status Revoked for North Texas Students

  • 🎯 The affected students attend institutions including UT-Dallas, UNT, Texas A&M, and Texas Women's University.
  • 📌 Removal from the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) database signifies the termination of their legal immigration status in the U.S.
