International students facing possible visa restrictions may have a backup plan to return to school in the fall – studying in Canada.
The University of Toronto’s School of Global Affairs and Public Policy said it will offer options for international graduate students planning to return to the John Kennedy School of Government, a school known as Harvard Kennedy School, to continue studying in the country.
According to the announcement from Munk School, the agreement websitestudents will be allowed to attend courses in a combination of online and in-person Kennedy School lecturers and University of Toronto faculty.

The Trump administration has been with Harvard for months after universities rejected the administration’s demand to resolve conservative complaints, although the demands have become too free and tolerated anti-Semitic harassment – despite the widespread ridicule of the measure as silent on university campuses across the United States,
Last month, the Trump administration Revoked Harvard University was able to recruit international students at Ivy League schools in Cambridge, Massachusetts as part of a stress campaign.
Administration officials also cut more than $2.6 billion in research grants, ended federal contracts, and threatened to revoke Trump's school tax-free status, a hotbed of liberalism.
The university said it rejected the White House's illegal retaliation for the overhaul policy requests for campus protests, enrollment, recruitment and other issues.
Harvard sued the Department of Homeland Security in May, which the agency withdrew its school’s certification to host foreign students and issue paperwork for their visas. The action would force approximately 7,000 foreign students at Harvard University to illegally transfer or risk.
A federal judge in Boston issued an order Monday that retains the ability of foreign students to travel to the United States to study at Harvard University when the case was ruled.
The judge said Trump attacked freedom of thought.
The latest ban is in response to another Trump migration, who cited another legal basis when he issued a declaration on June 4 to prevent foreign students from entering the United States to attend Harvard University.
Judge Allison Burroughs said under the order that the case was about freedom of speech and freedom of thought.
“Here, the efforts made by the government to control well-known academic institutions and various perspectives appear to be because in some cases they oppose the current government’s own views and threaten these rights,” she wrote.
Burroughs issued a preliminary ban last Friday allowing Harvard to temporarily continue enrolling.
Trump posted on his Truth Social Friday's platform, a deal with the university is possible and can be announced soon.
“In these negotiations, they acted very appropriately and seemed committed to doing the right thing,” he said.
Thomas Mete, a student at Harvard University in Canada, described the turmoil that the Trump administration experienced when it tried to ban international students. Mete said in a conversation with the National that he was paying close attention to development because he had no plans.
The plan is in place, but it is not locked
Kennedy School International Students have two potential options and they make up for it 59% Among the school population, people come from nearly 100 countries and regions.
Under an agreement with Munk School, international students will be admitted as “full-time, non-degree special students”.
After completing their studies, they will graduate from Harvard University’s Master’s degree.
The university recommends students taking Munk School Kennedy School courses to apply for a Canadian study permit in mid-July.
Although the option to attend Munk School is only open to return students, Kennedy School has also developed a second contingency plan that will enable new international students to continue studying at Harvard.
That OptionsThis will also be offered for returning students, with three in-person meetings available online and three in-person meetings throughout the school year.
But neither plan is a deal.
They not only depend on demand, but also require approval from the New England Higher Education Commission.
It is not clear whether other Harvard universities have reached agreements with international students.
But Harvard President Alan M. Garber assured international students Earlier this month The plan is being formulated.
Harvard’s Canadian history professor said the attacks on the institution by U.S. President Donald Trump, including attempts to ban international students, were essentially “authoritarian”. Kirsten Weld said in an interview with the National that these strategies reflect the authoritarian regimes of the past.
