The challenges of managing international student enrollment and retention have intensified as U.S. government regulatory changes destabilize students' legal statuses without clear communication. In April, the federal government altered SEVIS statuses unexpectedly, complicating compliance for schools and impacting students, particularly those on Optional Practical Training and from China. In response, Terra Dotta launched a new platform aimed at improving data management and support for international student services, revealing a strong demand for better tools at the NAFSA conference. As policies continue to evolve, the strain on staff and students remains significant, highlighting the need for robust support systems.
