The Trump University has prevented Harvard University from registering international students, in a major escalation of its attacks on one of the finest Ivy League schools in America.

Internal Security Minister Christie sleep sent a message to Harvard University on Thursday to inform her administration that the certificate of the student and stock exchange program at the university was canceled, “immediately effective.”

The decision comes amid a campaign of deepening in recent months by US President Donald Trump on the elite institutions, which he accuses of promoting the ideology “wake up” and failed to address anti -Semitism.

In a post on X, her message was published, Noem books: “It is a privilege, not really, for universities to register foreign students and take advantage of their high academic payments to help set their endowments of billions of dollars.”

“This is a warning to all universities and academic institutions throughout the country.”

This step will affect students’ admission for the next academic year, but Nayyim also said that the ban means approximately 6,800 international students at Harvard University, and they represent More than 27 percent From the amount of this year, you must change their registration to other universities.

Harvard said the administration’s move was “illegal” and that it was “fully committed” to maintain its ability to host international students.

“We are working quickly to provide guidance and support to our community members. This retaliatory procedure threatens the Harvard community and our country, and undermines Harvard’s academic and research mission.”

The new attack on Harvard comes amid an escalating confrontation between Ivy League schools and the Trump administration, which reduced billions of dollars in federal funding for institutions.

The president’s critics say that the moves against American universities amount to a campaign against freedom of expression and academic freedom. Harvard University filed a lawsuit against the administration to stop more than two million dollars in the university’s financing.

Nam was accused of Harvard University of creating an “hostile” environment for Jewish students-an attack directed by the administration against universities that was the scene of the protests supporting the Palestinians after Hamas’s attack on October 7, 2022 on Israel and the subsequent attack of the country in Gaza.

The Minister of Internal Security said that the Trump administration will seek to obtain all the records of illegal, dangerous or violent activity for foreign students, including cases of students who are threatening or disciplinary measures against them.

The tape will also cause international students anxiety on the 1.1 million foreigners in American universities – including the largest share that comes from India and China – as well as others in the hope of studying in the United States.
