US Visa Restrictions Under Trump's Presidency Hinder Over One Million Foreign Students from Enrolling at Top US Universities Like Harvard

Published on 5.30.25

  The tightening of US visa policies under President Trump has had a significant impact on international students, with over one million affected. The new regulations have made it more difficult for foreign scholars to enroll in top US universities such as Harvard University. According to Maureen Martin, director of US immigration services, international students at Harvard are facing additional screening by Customs and Border Protection agents upon arrival in Boston. This has led to a lawsuit from Harvard, which was temporarily suspended by a judge. The move has already resulted in visa applications being refused for at least 10 foreign students. International students are exploring alternative options such as universities in Canada or considering studying in India for business, liberal arts, and tech programs.
