Harvard Sues Trump Administration Over International Ban
Digest more
Harvard and the federal government are locked in a battle that boils down to turning over records on international students. But Harvard says it is also about the First Amendment.
Harvard's international students, including many from India, are in limbo after Trump revoked the university's ability to enroll them.
“We saw that just with the spring sort of enrollment and intake, there was a 13% decline in enrollment of graduate students in the United States,” said Fanta Aw, CEO of NAFSA, Association of International Educators. “And we know the spring semester has a smaller intake. The majority of intake for universities are in the fall.”
Investigators have seized writings that they believe belong to the suspect as they search for a motive in the fatal attack.
This decline is part of a broader tightening of international student admissions. Overall, Canada issued 96,015 study permits in early 2025 — a significant drop from 121,070 the year before.
