Current U.S. Entry Restrictions

U.S. immigration and visa policies can change without notice. Presidential proclamations and other government policies may restrict or suspend visa issuance or entry for nationals of certain countries.

If you are a national of a country currently subject to U.S. travel or visa restrictions, carefully consider the potential risks of international travel before leaving the United States. Depending on your circumstances, traveling outside the United States may affect your ability to obtain a new visa or return to the United States.

Current restrictions, affected countries, and exceptions can change without much, if any, notice. Review the most current information from the U.S. Department of State before making international travel plans.

Please understand that international travel always carries some risk. Each time you leave the United States, you are taking on the risk that you may encounter issues when attempting to return. Admission to the United States is ultimately determined by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and having valid immigration documents does not guarantee that you will be permitted to re-enter the country.

If you are unsure how current travel restrictions may affect your individual circumstances, contact the International Advising Office before traveling.
