Trump Abruptly Walks Back Student Visa Cancellations. Here's What We Know
Briefly

After considerable opposition, the Trump Administration has reversed a decision that endangered the legal status of thousands of international students. The Department of Justice announced the reinstatement of immigration records that had been abruptly terminated, impacting about 4,700 students. This reversal follows weeks of protests, court challenges, and a loss of support for the administration’s immigration policies. Many international students faced severe consequences due to the terminations, including detentions and barriers in accessing resources. As part of the reversal, ICE will establish a new policy framework regarding student visa records.
ICE’s abrupt mass terminations earlier this month impacted around 4,700 international students, sending shockwaves across campuses and pushing many into legal limbo.
The Trump Administration's reversal came shortly before ICE officials were to testify in court, signifying a significant retreat from their earlier hardline immigration stance.
