In this first semester of 2020 we have seen the world stop in several instances. Commerce, government entities, service providers, universities and schools have immediately suspended their work to mitigate the contagion of this disease.
In the case of teaching institutions, the decision has affected directly the lives of students all over the world. Besides having their classes cancelled for an indeterminate period, many are going through difficult situations far from their homes – this is the case of exchange students.
In the USA, several universities have suspended their activities until the end of the semester. That’s the case of Harvard, for example. This situation creates a huge legal problem regarding the permanence of international students who aren’t exercising their main function, which is studying.
In the great majority of cases, the administrations of each institution are giving different orders for these cases. Most of them, however, have advised their students to go back home, since the air space of countries affected by COVID-19 may be closed as a measure for the containment of new transmissions.
This has made many students act quickly. Important universities have affirmed that those affected will be able to return to academic life as soon as possible, which has brought hope to the students.
