Updates on Federal Immigration Actions
Texas Christian University values the diverse perspectives, experiences, and contributions of our international students, faculty, and staff. We remain steadfast in our commitment to fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment where every member of our global community feels supported and secure.
We recognize the concerns and uncertainty that recent federal immigration policy changes and enforcement actions may cause, both for individuals directly affected and for their families, whether here in the U.S. or abroad. TCU shares in these concerns and continues to monitor developments closely.
The International Services Office (ISO), in collaboration with campus partners across academic advising, wellness, and student support services, is here to assist. If you or someone you know has questions or needs guidance, please reach out. The ISO team is available in person, by email at internationalservices@tcu.edu or through appointments.
Together, we affirm our dedication to supporting every Horned Frog, on campus and beyond.
Important Nonimmigrant Visa Interview Scheduling Requirements
Effective September 6, 2025, the U.S. Department of State (DOS) now requires non-immigrant visa applicants to schedule their visa interview appointments at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate located in their country of nationality or residence. Individuals from countries where the United States does not maintain visa operations must apply at a designated U.S. Embassy or Consulate in another country. An updated list of affected countries was published on October 10, 2025. To ensure accuracy and avoid delays, applicants should refer directly to the U.S. Department of State for the most current information and instructions.
