On Thursday, U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration revoked Harvard University’s ability to enroll foreign students.
Harvard’s foreign students must now transfer schools or lose their legal status. However, on May 23, a U.S. judge blocked the Trump administration’s decision while it hears a lawsuit filed by Harvard, who claims the move violates the First Amendment.
If the decision stands, it would have an impact on more than 5,000 foreign students from over 100 countries who attend Harvard. One university website found that approximately 500 to 800 Canadians are part of the student body at Harvard in a given year.
