TEAM USA Act

This bill would change the Higher Education Act of 1965 so that colleges taking part in federal student aid programs must limit international students on each varsity sports team. No more than 20 percent of a team's official roster could be international student athletes, and teams with fewer than 10 athletes could have no more than 1. Colleges would have to report each team's percentage of international student athletes every year to the Secretary of Education and their athletic association. The bill defines international student athletes as those who are not U.S. nationals or permanent residents, or who get athletic-related money from a foreign Olympic or Paralympic committee. The rules would start July 1, 2029, for the 2029-2030 academic year.
