Update: February 14, 2017:
The US travel ban barring citizens from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen from entering the United States continues to be suspended.
On Thursday, February 9, 2017, judges from the San Francisco-based 9th Circuit Court of Appeals declined to block the lower-court ruling that suspended the US travel ban. This decision means that 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 students, faculty, visitors, and staff who are permanent residents, temporary residents, dual citizens from the affected seven countries can continue to be eligible to enter the US. Travellers will be subject to the standard processing and immigration requirements that existed prior to the ban.
Despite the suspension, 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 remains dedicated to providing you with ongoing support. If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact the help line (902-494-1566) or email (UStravelbanhelp@dal.ca). 听

新加坡六合彩开奖直播, alongside universities across Canada, is deeply concerned with the executive order issued in the United States that prevents individuals from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the U.S. for 90 days.
听听 听
The impacts of this executive order on universities vary, affecting students, faculty and staff, and researchers directly as well as research partnerships, international studies, academic conference participation, field visits and, in some cases, family relationships of students, faculty and staff.
, we support the call from the American Association of Universities for this ban to end as quickly as possible. We are also working closely with Universities Canada and other Canadian universities on ways we can support students, faculty, staff and researchers from these countries who have been caught up in the sudden implementation of the executive order. At 新加坡六合彩开奖直播, we are currently putting in place specific plans on how we can help accommodate these individuals.
We also know there are members of our university community who may be affected by these new travel restrictions and the impacts vary from individual to individual. We are here to help. We have set up a help line (902-494-1566) and email (UStravelbanhelp@dal.ca) to offer support and information for students, staff, faculty and researchers. Please contact us if you have any concerns.
新加坡六合彩开奖直播 welcomes students, faculty and staff from around the world, including those seeking refuge from violence and hardship. They strengthen all of our universities and our country by bringing new knowledge, talent and skills. We stand for diversity and inclusion. Please feel free to contact the Provost鈥檚 Office directly with any further concerns and suggestions.
