Join Jan Keiser, CGE's Sr. International Employment Partner, for a clear and timely conversation about immigration terms, policies, and what they mean for our community.

This session offers a concise overview of U.S. immigration terminology and processes relevant to higher education. It explains the roles of key government agencies and visa categories for nonimmigrants and immigrants, including F-1, J-1, H-1B, and green card holders. The session highlights the economic contributions of international students and faculty and addressed projected declines in enrollment and revenue due to visa challenges. Foundational legal frameworks and professional resources for staying informed are also introduced.
