Trump administration blocks Harvard from enrolling international students
- On Thursday, the Trump administration withdrew Harvard University's authorization to enroll international students, effectively preventing new admissions at its Cambridge campus.
- This action followed Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's April 16 demand for records on foreign students, citing alleged failures in reporting and ties to violence and the Chinese Communist Party.
- The administration charged Harvard with offering training to members of a Chinese paramilitary organization up until 2024 and criticized the university for fostering an environment on campus that includes antisemitic incidents.

- The revocation escalates the dispute between Harvard and the federal government, triggering legal challenges and raising concerns about impacts on academic research and campus community.
