US Visa Applicants Face Social Media Scrutiny, Could Deny Entry

US Visa Applicants Face Social Media Scrutiny, Could Deny Entry

The US government is now checking the social media of people applying for visas to visit Harvard University.

If you don't have any social media or hide your accounts, you might not get a visa.

Experts say this is a problem because it can hurt privacy.

It also affects students from countries where people don't use social media much.

This policy could make it harder for international students to come to the US, which could affect education and America's place in the world.
