The Trump administration has backtracked on Harvard, giving the school 30 days to challenge the administration's revocation of its ability to host international students.

Ahead of a federal hearing over Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students, the acting director of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement issued a letter Thursday giving the school 30 days to challenge the administration’s revocation of that certification.

The letter formally notifies the school that its Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification would be withdrawn – but backtracks from the administration’s earlier stance by giving Harvard 30 days to achieve compliance.
