The Trump administration tried to cancel Harvard’s student visa program over antisemitism and China ties, but a federal judge halted the move within hours.
The Trump administration attempted to cancel Harvard University’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP).
The decision could have led to the expulsion of thousands of international students.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced the move on Thursday. She accused Harvard of promoting antisemitism and collaborating with institutions linked to China.
Hours later, a federal judge issued a nationwide injunction.
This prevented the government from revoking international students’ legal status while a court case proceeds.
