Why this petition matters

The 2020 year has been one of the most appalling year, particularly for international students studying in the USA. Due to COVID-19, the classes has moved online, they lost their on-campus employment and with the plunging economy a considerable lot of them couldn't find an internship this summer, which help them a great deal in gaining international work experience just as help them in procuring some cash to pay for their educational cost. Presently, that the trump has additionally ban the H-1B visa till 31st December 2020 their are numerous vulnerabilities for international students with no or restricted resources available in the USA.

For international students, the educational cost is twice when contrasted with the in-state education costs. Thus, It doesn't bode well to pay around 15,000 $ as an education costs for online or hybrid classes, when one can take in the courses online from stages like Udacity or Coursera for a small amount of this expense of not more than 400$ every month.

In this way, I demand the colleges in the USA to lessen the educational cost to half or provide out-of-state tuition waiver to foreign students.
