Trump Administration Revokes 4,000 Visas for Students With Criminal Records
Jennie Taer, New York Post, April 29, 2025
The Trump administration has revoked the visas of 4,000 foreign students in its first 100 days — the bulk of which have committed crimes in the US including arson, assault and robbery, The Post has learned.
More than 90% of the rogue students who saw their visas nixed had committed crimes such as arson, wildlife and human trafficking, child endangerment, domestic abuse, DUI and robbery, a senior State Department source told The Post Monday. More than 500 of them had assault raps.

The thousands of students, most of whom hail from Asia and the Middle East, were swiftly notified that the State Department had stripped them of their status in the US.
Some have already departed on their own while others will soon be rounded up by immigration agents as part of Trump’s mass deportation agenda.

“Perhaps in the future other visa categories, not just students, will be looked at,” the source said.
