Hi, while the news is correct there is much more to it. The Federal court has issued a nationwide order to prevent cancellation without individual review. To my understanding, the trump government is looking to invite and retain individuals who are looking to purely focus on academia and work towards growth. With a longer term view he is perhaps trying to clean the system from being overly liberal. These are just my thoughts. Indian focussed kids will certainly benefit in the long term. As this news is coming in day before multiple of our Indian Deferred MBA Applicants have received interview invites from Harvard. Hope this helps to know the real point beyond what media is portraying. Regards, Neha Iyengar MBA Head Oncourse

Thank you for sharing!

I think the clarity would help though even with this message, I still don't quite understand some of the points you are suggesting - sorry :angel:
Such as "clean system from being liberal" - not sure what system or what liberal or who he is :dontknow:

I think the government is duking it out with Harvard trying to flex the muscle for really no good reasons and likely will back down once they meet resistance.

In my personal experience, the university might do something about it because it’s in the limelight.

But if it were a single individual being Targeted for xenophobic reasons, they’d probably have let it slide in silence.

Even the members of the school and the special little people who get their special treatment would be silent.

Hi everyone, i just read this news about Trump to Harvard International admission https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/us/p ... dents.html

Hi everyone, i just read this news about Trump to Harvard International admission https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/us/p ... dents.html
So, as per Economic Times: The decision, made under the Trump administration, affects both current and prospective foreign students under F-1 and J-1 visa categories. This includes nearly 800 Indian students and scholars currently enrolled at the institution.

Here's how Trump's decision will impact Indian students?

Will current Indian students in Harvard be allowed to graduate?
Indian students who completed their degrees this semester will be allowed to graduate. Noem's letter said the changes would take effect for the 2025-2026 school year. Harvard's Class of 2025 is expected to graduate next week.

However, students who have yet to complete their degree need to transfer to another university, Noem said, or they'll lose their legal permission to remain in the United States.

What will happen to admitted Indian students this fall?
No, not unless the government changes its decision or a court steps in. For now, Noem said Harvard could restore its status as a host institution for foreign students if it complied with a list of demands within 72 hours. Those demands include requests for a range of records, such as disciplinary records for international students, plus any audio and video recordings of protest activity.

Harvard’s only route to restoring its SEVP status before the new academic year hinges on fulfilling six federal requirements. These include:
  • All records of “illegal activity” involving nonimmigrant students over the last five years
  • Documentation of “dangerous or violent activity” on or off campus by these students
  • Records of “threats made” by them toward others
  • Any evidence of these students depriving others of their rights
  • All disciplinary records of nonimmigrant students since 2020
  • Any protest-related audio or video involving nonimmigrant students
Let's hope that this situation cools down soon!

Be positive guys.

We’re international students and immigrants, we’ve been built different, forged different and have developed a resilience to stand against many storms.


The current sentiment is nothing new, we have faced this for years now. I’m just afraid how it will affect sponsorship.


But still if anyone needs help, we have some connections at MBA Conquerors that we can utilize to provide any help.

While it’s true that a notice has been sent, it’s important to remember that this is not a final decision, it’s only a proposal at this stage. As international students, we still have time and the support of many institutions and communities who value diversity and global talent. The conversation is ongoing and there’s still room for constructive change. Let’s stay hopeful and positive.

Someone trying real hard to prove the American universities are "LIBERAL"

As an Indian engineer, I think we prefer to say, "Selectively liberal"

What’s the status quo now that trump revoked harvard’s ability to take in international students?

What happens to those that got accepted?

Won’t happen. Business as usual.

Someone is just trying too hard on one hand to get the votes for himself and on the other to prove that Harvard and other top universities are super liberal to cover up some deeper stuff.... That’s my only guess 🤣

Hi everyone, it is acceptable for MBA harvard to applicant who ielts is only 7.0 ? my overall score is 7.0

I see on their official website that ...strongly discourages applicants with IELTS scores below 7.5.

Has anyone ever applied to Harvard MBA with an IELTS score of 7.0?
If you are from an institution where the medium of instruction was English, then I believe you might not have to worry about IELTS

Will still need to check the requirements tho
