All four previously revoked Fordham University student visas have been restored by the federal government as of April 27, according to Fordham’s webpage “Updates on Evolving Political Landscape.” The information was confirmed by University Spokesperson Bob Howe this morning via email.
This comes two weeks after the students had their visas revoked without a provided reason, and follows the first Fordham visa reinstatement on April 25.
Across the nation, international student visas have been reinstated by the federal government following a slew of legal challenges brought by universities to the initial revocations. Fordham is among these universities, signing on to an amicus brief that challenges President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders.
