Travel ban due to Ongoing pandemic

[Smriti 0]

I have got my F1 Visa last month for Master's in Computer Science and my class starts from 7th June 2021. But due to ongoing pandemic there is a travel ban and as per my understanding students whose class starts from August are exempted from this ban.
I am not sure if I fall under the exemption category since my class starts from June as there is no mention about the students coming for Summer session.
Do I need to defer my session to Fall Session or I can travel and continue my class from June.

Where are you from? The US government is allowing F1 visa holders from some countries to come back to the US.
