INS Launches Web Site to Track Foreign Students
.
The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) today launched a new Web site that the nation's universities will use to register foreign students. This is the first step in the government's new plan to track the movements of all those with temporary visas, according to INS officials.
.. |  | INS plans to hire 10,000 new employees nationwide by September 30, 2002, an increase from the previously announced goal of 8,000. For all current job vacancy announcements and new ones being announced shortly, check the Current Vacancies page. |  | | | Search URLwire archives since 1994 | | | . | | The new system, called SEVIS, will become mandatory by the end of January, 2003. said Terrance O'Reilly, commissioner of the INS's field service operations department, "We are going to make sure that those who enter our country to attend a college, actually do what they have agreed to do. This is about guaranteeing that our foreign students live up to their bargain and don't head off to places unknown." Thousands of foreign students accepted to American colleges switched colleges once they arrived. Others disappeared in the United States. The Web site is also intended to close many loopholes that have led to the government losing track of foreign students.
