The Trump administration has significantly increased efforts to cancel the visas and residency permits of international students, with hundreds of student visas revoked in recent weeks, according to an analysis published by Inside Higher Ed.
The report found that over the past month, the Trump administration has accelerated its actions, canceling student visas at a rapid pace, with no indication that these efforts will slow down. "Over the last month, the Trump administration has rapidly ramped up efforts to revoke students’ visas and residency status, and it shows no sign of slowing down," the analysis stated.
Within just five days, 147 student visas were canceled across 48 educational institutions, though the total number is likely much higher. The study also noted that the visa cancellations are not restricted to political activities, such as support for Palestine. In some cases, even minor infractions have resulted in detention. For instance, a Colombian undergraduate student at the University of Florida was detained for driving with an expired license and is currently being held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
The report further highlighted that many students may be unaware that their visas have been revoked, as some smaller colleges have opted not to publicly disclose visa cancellations for fear of federal scrutiny.
