Feb 20, Kathmandu - The US Embassy in Nepal has clarified the circumstances under which visas of students in the US will be revoked during their studies.

On Friday (Falgun 28), the embassy issued a public notice stating that students who drop out of school, are absent from classes, or withdraw from their academic program without informing the school will have their visas revoked. The notice also states that students who engage in such activities may be ineligible to reapply for a visa in the future.
