Why deny onshore student visas?

[LanyaThemera]

"What are the reasons behind the government's decision to not provide student visas to individuals who are currently onshore, and what impact might this policy have on prospective students and educational institutions?"

By onshore, do you mean folks currently residing in US? There is no blanket policy to deny student visa to non-citizen individuals currently in US.

Denying onshore student visas can occur for various reasons, including failure to meet academic requirements, insufficient financial support, or lack of genuine intent to study. Immigration authorities assess applications to ensure applicants comply with visa conditions and contribute positively to the educational environment. Maintaining rigorous standards helps uphold the integrity of the education system and protects the interests of both students and institutions.
