A federal judge said she is extending a tempor order on Thursday to block the Trump administration’s revocation of Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students.
The extension came after the Trump administration said it would give Harvard 30 days to challenge its revocation, according to a letter attached to the Wednesday night court filing.
The court document states that the Department of Homeland Security is asking Harvard “to submit sworn statements and document or other evidence to rebut the grounds for withdrawal of certification” under the federal Student and Exchange Visitor Program, which allows Harvard to enroll foreign students.
That includes misconduct records of its international students and “maintain a campus environment free from violence and antisemitism,” according to the May 28 letter.
The Trump administration revoked Harvard’s ability to enroll foreign students last week. Hours later, U.S. District Judge Allison D. Burroughs temporarily blocked the administration’s effort.
Homeland Security Secret Kristi Noem shared the letter on X on Thursday.
