ICE Backs Off: UC and Xavier Students Get Their Visas Back After Lawsuits

The Trump administration is temporarily restoring immigration status for many international students, including those at UC and Xavier. Students like Jiarong Ouyang, a UC doctoral candidate, had their visas pulled suddenly, throwing their futures into chaos. Ouyang and others sued, pushing ICE to backtrack during a court hearing.

Judge Jeffrey White wasn’t impressed with the government’s flip-flopping. Many students lost jobs, research time, and peace of mind. Even though some visas are reactivated, students still worry about lasting impacts. Ouyang, who has a 3.94 GPA and a family here, had his visa revoked over an old dropped charge. For now, students are breathing a little easier — but trust remains shaken.
