Important Update
Over the past three days, the Harvard International Office (HIO) has learned that three students and two recent graduates have had their student visas revoked. The University learned of the revocations during a routine records review. The HIO notified the students of the revocations and referred them to legal assistance. To protect student privacy, the University cannot provide the identity of the individuals. We are not aware of the details of the revocations or the reasons for them, but we understand that comparable numbers of students and scholars in institutions across the country have experienced similar status changes in roughly the same timeframe. Harvard deeply values the international students and scholars who travel here to learn and grow. The talent they bring to campus each day increases our ability to advance world-class discovery in fields that have meaningful impact on people’s lives, while creating positive relationships and discourse that expand the horizons of people across our community. We are committed to continuing to support them. Important Facts to Know
We continue to be available to provide support amid changing circumstances. Thank you for the important role you play in our community. Sincerely, Harvard International Office
