I was more referring to the process as a whole, not just the student path.These aren't the types of immigrants the government wants. They don't want people coming in on student visas and then applying for citizenship, they want people with professional skills, like doctors, engineers, architects etc. And I don't blame them. Generally, applications should be made from outside the US, by people with stable careers in their own country.
I had no idea about this. I still want you to shut up though.All of the students at this school started at a legitimate school and then transferred to this fake one. They knew exactly what they were doing. They knew there was an attendance requirement (minimum 80% attendance of classes, calculated on a quarterly basis) and they chose to sign up to this school so that they wouldn't have to worry about their school schedule getting in the way of whatever illegal work they were doing.
And they knew that as F1 (student) visa holders they weren't allowed to work (unless they were hired to work part-time at the school they were attending, which we know wasn't the case for any of these students).
I have seen thousands of students who work illegally on student visas. Not hundreds, thousands. And every single one of them has known that what they're doing is illegal. And a lot of them would transfer to a fake school if they thought they could probably get away with it.
Here's how the process works:
- Find a school in the U.S. that offers classes at a convenient time for you to work illegally during the time you're not in class (most language schools offer evening classes for this exact reason)
- Come to the U.S. on F1 visa and work illegally, with the ultimate intent of most being permanent U.S. residency (acquired through a business marriage, a legitimate marriage, a change in status to a different visa that provides a path residency, or whatever other methods are available to them)
- Attend at least 80% of your classes (at least 15 out of the 18 required hours per week at language schools) so that your school doesn't terminate your visa and you can continue renewing your driver's license, which expires on an annual basis for F1 visa holders
The fact that this was set up by ICE just means that the government is trying to bust these fully conscious rule breakers, which is a good thing because these people are knowingly breaking the law.
Further testament to the students' complicity is seen when you read that 80% of them have voluntarily left the country so that they wouldn't be deported/banned from re-entering the U.S. in the future. So they agree to go back, bide their time, and hope to get a sympathetic U.S. consulate employee reviewing their paperwork in a few years when they re-apply for a visa.
This also happens at non government-run schools. And when the government finds out, not only are the students dealt with the same way, but the owner of the school and any school employees with knowledge of the fraud are also arrested.

This is why you don't get your news from asshats on Twitter.
You're acting like a foolI had no idea about this. I still want you to shut up though.
“A Warning,” a behind-the-scenes book authored by an anonymous Trump administration official that takes a critical look at the president, has replaced Donald Trump Jr.’s “Triggered” as the No. 1 nonfiction book on The New York Times's bestseller list.
In the latest list released by the newspaper this week, "A Warning" is the top-selling book in the publication’s “Combined Print & E-Book Nonfiction” category. Trump Jr.’s book, which was released Nov. 5, now sits at No. 2 on the list amid controversy over reports of bulk purchases made of book made by the Republican National Committee.

The success of “A Warning,” which was released Nov. 19, arrives two weeks after Hachette Book Group, which published the piece, said the book received a record number of pre-order sales.
House judiciary committee chairman Jerry Nadler wrote to Donald Trump on Friday, asking if the president “intends to participate” in impeachment inquiry hearings due to begin next week.
“I look forward to your prompt response,” he wrote.
A U.S. congressional panel on Friday gave President Donald Trump one week to say whether his legal counsel intends to introduce evidence and call witnesses in upcoming impeachment proceedings that could lead to formal charges of misconduct within a few weeks.
Say what you want about him but the fact he didn’t announce this to gain popularity, is awesome.
Every president does this....Say what you want about him but the fact he didn’t announce this to gain popularity, is awesome.
If it was a double bluff then so be it, he still didn’t spend it eating turkey with his family or on the golf course.
good find.
