US immigration authorities have revoked a spate of student visas for foreign nationals at major colleges including Harvard, Tufts and Stanford, in a growing number of cases that have raised concern among campus officials.
The recent cancellations — often discovered by schools only after federal immigration records are updated — have affected both students and recent graduates, according to statements over the past several days from colleges across the country. The moves come amid broader efforts by the Trump administration to tighten oversight of international students, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying last month that 300 or more such visas had been canceled.
