US EditionTrump administration renews pressure on Harvard over foreign students, accreditation
MASSACHUSETTS, JUL 10 – The Department of Homeland Security escalated enforcement after Harvard repeatedly refused voluntary requests, targeting alleged visa abuses and misconduct by foreign students under federal immigration law.
- On Wednesday, DHS issued subpoenas compelling Harvard to produce documents on foreign-student misconduct and visa compliance.
- Since January 2020, DHS requested records from Harvard, but repeated refusals led to subpoenas amid escalating enforcement actions.
- DHS's ICE subpoena demands records since January 2020, alleging Harvard permitted visa abuses and campus violence advocacy, despite Harvard's denial of misconduct.
- Despite subpoenas, Harvard retains visa issuance under a court order, shielding about 27% of its international student body from enrollment risks.
- In the coming weeks, federal agencies urged Harvard's accreditor to review possible Title VI violations ahead of a July 21 hearing, with full evaluation not due until 2027.
