Trump Admin Revokes Harvard's Right To Enrol Foreign Students
In an unprecedented development, the Trump administration revoked Harvard University바카라s eligibility to enrol international students, telling existing foreign students to transfer or lose their legal status, a move that can impact several students from India.
This action comes after the Department of Homeland Security terminated USD 2.7 million in DHS grants for Harvard last month.
Department of Homeland Security said that its Secretary Kristi Noem is following through on her promise to protect students and prohibit terrorist sympathisers from receiving benefits from the US government.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem ordered the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to terminate the Harvard University바카라s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification.

Noem said in a letter to Harvard University that 바카라I am writing to inform you that effective immediately, Harvard University바카라s Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification is revoked바카라.
