Coronavirus and Study Abroad Issues

I’m hearing that both SMU and Columbia are pulling ALL study abroad kids home. No matter if they are in a country with active COVID cases or not. My D is in a country with (so-far) relatively few cases (less than 5 total in the country). Apparently, this is based on the CDC memo that schools should “Consider postponing or canceling student foreign exchange programs.”
