On Friday, March 28, a student at the University of Oregon had their visa canceled by Homeland Security due to unspecified criminal charges, according to the school.
A UO spokesperson said the university was not notified by federal agents about the unidentified student’s visa termination or given further details about the criminal charges.
UO said they are required to inform students when their F-1 visa status is terminated and they are given 15 days to leave the country unless they have another legal pathway for remaining.
“We are working to understand more about this situation and are committed to handling this matter with care and respect for the student’s privacy,” a UO spokesperson wrote to FOX 12. “When a student’s visa is revoked, the university offers any assistance we can provide.”
