Harvard, UCLA, Stanford among schools across US reporting student visa revocations
The student visas of five individuals currently attending or recently graduated from Harvard University have been revoked, according to Harvard.
It's one of more than a dozen higher education institutions that is actively tracking and reporting the number of affiliated people who have been targeted by President Donald Trump's administration in recent weeks.
These incidents are part of what appears to be mass targeting of international students by Trump's administration over alleged violations of their visa or green card conditions, ranging from minor legal infractions to participating in demonstrations. In other cases, the reason for the revocation is unknown or has not been provided by the administration.
Since the beginning of Trump's second term, the State Department has revoked over 300 student visas nationwide, Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters on March 27.
