The United States has issued a reminder to international students - particularly those from Nigeria - about the importance of complying with student visa regulations.

In an official message posted on its verified X (formerly Twitter) account on Monday, the US Mission in Nigeria emphasized that students who drop out, miss classes regularly, or leave their academic programmes without notifying their institutions may face visa consequences.

The embassy encouraged students to remain in good academic standing and communicate with their designated school officials to avoid complications related to their visa status.

This reminder serves as part of broader efforts by the US government to ensure international students understand and comply with the legal conditions of their stay.
