US EditionHarvard sues Trump administration to halt federal ban on enrolling international students
- Harvard University filed a lawsuit on May 23, 2025, in Boston to block the Trump administration's ban on enrolling international students at its Cambridge campus.
- The ban comes after Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's April 16 demand for comprehensive records on foreign students, citing concerns about their involvement in unsafe campus incidents and alleged connections to the Chinese government.
- Harvard responded that it has made governance changes to combat antisemitism and refused to comply fully, arguing the government's claims rely on generalized statements without rational links to retaliation.
- The administration seeks to erase a quarter of Harvard’s student body by barring about 6,800 foreign students, threatening immediate and devastating effects on more than 7,000 visa holders, according to Harvard.
- If the ban stands, Harvard may lose eligibility to host international students for at least two academic years, potentially harming its competitiveness and prompting current students to transfer or risk deportation.
