In a major policy move, U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced a visa ban targeting foreign students intending to begin their education at Harvard University. The announcement marks another step in Trump’s hardened stance on immigration and U.S. universities.
“I have determined that it is necessary to restrict the entry of foreign nationals who seek to enter the United States solely or principally to participate in a course of study at Harvard University or in an exchange visitor program hosted by Harvard University,” Trump said in a statement. This development has sparked widespread attention, as it could significantly impact international education and student mobility to one of America’s most prestigious institutions.
This is a developing story.
