Trump Revokes Harvard International Student Enrollment

The Trump administration has revoked Harvard University's certification under the Student and Exchange Visitor Program, effectively barring the institution from enrolling new international students and forcing existing ones to transfer or lose their legal status. U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem accused Harvard University of "fostering violence, antisemitism, and co-ordinating with the China — Chinese Communist Party." This move is part of a broader campaign by Donald Trump's administration against universities, which has also included freezing billions in federal grants from the United States — United States Department of Education and the United States — United States Department of Health and Human Services, and threats to revoke Harvard University's tax-exempt status. Harvard University has called the action unlawful and retaliatory, pledging to support its nearly 6,800 international students from over 140 countries, including China, Canada, India, and South Korea.
