A US court on Thursday directed Trump's administration to not make any changes to Harvard's student visa program indefinitely.
District court judge Allison Burroughs told department of homeland security and state department to maintain the "status quo" and allow Harvard to continue hosting international students on visas at this time.
Burroughs told Harvard’s lawyers and the justice department lawyers to work out an agreement to stop the revocation of the student visa program for the time being.
“It doesn’t need to be draconian, but I want to make sure it’s worded in such a way that nothing changes,” she said.
The judge also has expressed concern that potential Harvard students abroad have been unable to get visas from some US embassies abroad since last week, according to Harvard’s sworn statements.
The justice department has said this morning the case may be moot because of the administration’s latest procedural move to delay consequence for Harvard.
