Wait so the government set up a fake school and gave its students a student visa and when they showed up for school they were arrested and deported? What was the point? The people thought they were going to school and obtained student visas and the government got what out of it?
- larnmar 7y agoApparently the point was to target the middlemen who recruit students for these fake universities (of which there are, apparently, plenty more out there.) The “students” were under no illusion that they’d actually get an education from this school, they knew it was a scam set up to get them into the US on student visas.
- randyrand 7y agoIt took me a minute to understand as well. Apparently it’s a common scheme to enroll in “easy” college classes in order to stay in the USA. Some classes are merely a front just to get immigration status and not to actually provide teaching. This was one of these fake schools, but set up by the government and apparently the students knew it offered no actual classes. So the students only enrolled in the school for the immigration status and not to actually attend schools, which is a violation.
