The Trump administration is set to cancel remaining federal contracts to Harvard University, The New York Times first reported, amid an escalating battle with American universities.
Harvard has filed several lawsuits against the White House over halted funding and a bid to stop international students from enrolling.
The Trump administration is also reportedly weighing whether to include a social media check as part of the student visa application process, according to Politico, a move that could significantly slow visa processing; the administration has ordered US embassies and consular sections to pause new student visa interviews, pending further guidance.
US President Donald Trump has accused Harvard and other universities of refusing to combat alleged anti-semitism on campus, and of promoting a progressive bias.
