The Trump administration has blocked the ability of Harvard University to enroll international students, The New York Times reported Thursday.
CNBC has requested comment from Harvard on the reported move, which comes amid an ongoing battle between the Ivy League school and the administration.
“I am writing to inform you that effective immediately, Harvard University’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification is revoked,” Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem wrote in a letter to Harvard, a copy of which The Times said it had obtained.
Noem in April had threatened to revoke Harvard’s ability to enroll international students.
She warned the university at that time that its certification to enroll foreign students was contingent upon complying with federal immigration laws.
