Columbia warns international students of proposed $70,000 work authorization fee

Original: Columbia alerts students about DHS-proposed $70,000 fee for international student work authorization

Columbia University has alerted its international students about a Department of Homeland Security proposal that would impose a $70,000 fee for work authorization, typically granted through Optional Practical Training. The university's outreach signals concern that such a cost would make staying and working in the United States after graduation unaffordable for most foreign students, with the issue reverberating across campuses that rely heavily on international enrollment.

Why now: A steep proposed federal fee threatens the ability of international students to work in the US, prompting warnings from a major university.
