A United States judge on Friday, May 23, issued orders temporarily blocking President Donald Trump's administration from revoking Harvard University's ability to enrol international students.
In what is a reprieve for current and aspiring Kenyan students at the Ivy League institution, the decision secures the academic future of thousands of students who were being forced to transfer from the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based university.
Kenyan students at Harvard University were among those set to be affected after the US government revoked the institution's ability to enrol international students.
This followed 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 would no longer be allowed to enrol foreign students.
