Immigration Policies

Abstract

Over the years, the United States has faced numerous challenges due to shifts in Immigrations Policies. This analysis aims to evaluate and provide some of the tools available to overcome some of the challenges that educational institutions and universities face when immigration policies affect their international students. In this analysis, Santa Cruz University (SCU) faces the problem of about 90% of its enrolled international students being unable to enter the United States due to recent changes in immigration policies affecting non-immigrant visas and student visa holders. Transactional Leadership Theory, Organizational Culture Theory, The Iceberg Model of Culture, and Change Management Theory are some of the methods and theories used in this analysis to evaluate possible solutions for SCU to be able to help their international students as well as to come up with strategic plans they can develop by maximizing the university resources.
