When Victor Hugo Batistela <\/span>moved more than 4,000 miles from his home in S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil three years ago, it was to attend school in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

Batistela <\/span>has taken full advantage, maintaining a 4.0 GPA in The Honors College at Wolfson Campus.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But now, the 18-year old\u2019s dream of attending Cornell University might be on hold.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On Monday, the Student<\/span> and Exchange Visitor Program\u2014part of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement\u2014issued guidelines<\/a><\/span> that would force international students to <\/span>return to their home countries if their college or university holds fall classes fully remote.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students taking hybrid classes\u2014a mixture of online and in-person classes\u2014will be allowed to take more than one three-credit class remotely, according to ICE.<\/span><\/p>\n

The measure would impact the 1,359 international students at Miami Dade College.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf I go back to Brazil, I won\u2019t have this opportunity to transfer again because I would stop [attending] college,\u201d said Batistela, who is studying computer science. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be much harder for me to come back to the United States.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

College spokesperson Juan Mendieta said how MDC offers courses in September will depend on guidance from federal, state and local health and government officials.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the College\u2019s Pandemic Outbreak Recovery Plan that was submitted to the chancellor for Florida State Colleges, MDC offered three options on how classes could be offered this fall\u2014face-to-face, hybrid and fully online.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The College must inform the SEVP by July 15 whether classes will be fully remote.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology filed lawsuits against the\u00a0<\/span>Trump administration today in hopes of blocking the federal rule, <\/span>citing the directive leaves hundreds of thousands of international students with no educational options and forces universities to reopen<\/span><\/a><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Students at MDC are classified as international if they have an F-1 Student Visa. They pay out-of-state tuition\u2014which is $331.11 per credit or $4,830.12 for a 12-credit course load\u2014and\u00a0<\/span>must enroll in at least 12 credits.<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s more than $6 million in tuition for MDC.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s definitely something that’s a chilling effect for, not only universities, but for the students,\u201d said Sandy R. Pineda, an immigration attorney based in South Florida. \u201cSadly, there’s gonna be a lot of people that are going to be forced to go back to class just because the schools themselves [have] to sustain themselves economically.<\/span><\/p>\n

International students at MDC come from 109 different countries. Most are from South America,\u00a0 including 388 who emigrated from Venezuela, 115 from Colombia and 101 from Brazil.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During the pandemic, international students have been allowed to take classes remotely during the spring and summer semesters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tracy Twahirwa, a 23-year-old nursing student, plans to drop out of MDC if classes are fully remote because of the six-hour time difference between Miami and her native country, Belgium.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t see the point,\u201d Twahirwa said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Paola
PIMENTEL<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Monday\u2019s<\/span> directive could also drastically impact the College\u2019s athletics program that features dozens of international players every year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This year\u2019s roster has 34 international players from countries like the <\/span>Dominican Republic, Sweden, Italy, Peru, Brazil and Colombia, according to MDC Athletic Director Alysia Dyer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSome of them have called me because they\u2019re worried,\u201d said head volleyball coach Origenes Benoit, who has recruited nine international volleyball players for the fall season. \u201cThey know that it\u2019s something that we cannot do anything about, these are the immigration rules and we have to follow. It\u2019s not an option.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

One of those players is sophomore libero Paola Pimentel from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI want to stay,\u201d Pimentel said. \u201cI don’t want to go back to Brazil, because I know that to come back later, it’s gonna be harder.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
