President Donald Trump signed a proclamation on June 4 to suspend international visas for new students at Harvard University as his administration and the Ivy League college battle in court over frozen federal funding.

Trump’s proclamation, “Enhancing National Security by Addressing Risks at Harvard University,” stops any new Harvard students from entering the United States as nonimmigrants under student (F), vocational (M), and exchange visitor (J) visas. It directs “the Secretary of State to consider revoking existing F, M, or J visas for current Harvard students who meet the Proclamation’s criteria.”
