Efforts to assist international students on F-1 Student Visas include hosting a free live legal information session with experienced immigration attorneys and university Designated School Officials (DSOs)

United States, 22nd Jul 2026 — GoElite, the global education platform that connects international students with top universities and hybrid programs, today announced an educational initiative aimed at helping international students on F-1 student visas prepare for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS’s) final rule ending “Duration of Status” (D/S) for F-1 students. The program includes the publication of educational resources and the hosting of a free live legal information session with experienced immigration attorneys and university Designated School Officials (DSOs). The goal is to enable students to understand the upcoming regulatory changes, their potential impact, and the steps they can take to remain compliant.

“By providing timely, expert-backed guidance, we aim to help F-1 students better understand the rule changes and make informed decisions before they take effect,” said a spokesperson for GoElite. “U.S. immigration policy can be confusing, even for professionals in the field. For this reason, we are focused on making student immigration as manageable as possible.”

The US federal government’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) completed its Final Duration of Status Rule review on June 17 of this year. The review has been published in the Federal Register, so it is now in effect.

In addition to the current resource program, GoElite is about to launch a new website, extensionofstay.com, which is dedicated to helping international students extend their stays in the U.S. after the new rule takes effect.
