Kenyan students at Harvard University are among those set to be affected after the US government revoked the institution's ability to enrol international students.
This follows an order by the Donald Trump administration directing the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to terminate Harvard University's Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification, meaning Harvard will no longer be allowed to enrol foreign students.
Current international students must now transfer to other institutions or risk losing their legal status in the United States, with the directive set to take effect in the 2025-2026 academic year.
According to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Harvard was accused of fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party.
