US resumes student visas but mandates full access to social media accounts

The US has resumed processing student visas after a temporary suspension but now requires all foreign applicants to provide public access to their social media accounts. The State Department will screen for posts deemed hostile to US values, raising concerns over privacy and free speech. Students applying to schools with more than 15% international enrollment may face delays. Civil liberties groups warn the policy could chill political expression, as reported by the Associated Press.
