A federal judge said she would issue a temporary order that would prevent the Trump administration from blocking the school’s ability to enroll international students.

A federal judge has extended an injunction on the Trump Administration's attempt to halt Harvard's student visa program.

The administration’s action was illegal and would cause irreparable harm, because about a quarter of Harvard students are from other countries, lawyers argued.

The decision was a victory, at least temporarily, in the university’s confrontation with the White House, which has sought to undercut its finances and influence.

Harvard University held its commencement ceremony today as a federal district judge said she will issue a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration from making changes to Harvard’s student visa program indefinitely.

A federal judge said on Wednesday that she would issue an order that would continue to block President Donald Trump's administration from immediately revoking Harvard University's ability to enroll international students.

Days after his administration moved to stop Harvard University from enrolling foreign students, President Trump said at a news conference Wednesday that the Ivy League college should set a limit for how many international students it accepts.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday claimed the “last thing” he wants to do is hurt Harvard, while his administration is still relentlessly hammering the elite university and as he mounted a new demand for the school to cap its admission of international students.
