Around 6,800 international students at Harvard University , 27% of its enrolments this year , are foreign students.

The White House moved to stop Harvard enrolling international students "as a result of their failure to adhere to the law" Harvard has called the move "unlawful", which could lead to a legal challenge.

The move has huge implications for the million or so international students in the US .

The anxiety among foreign students is palpable, says Jiang Fangzhou , who is reading public administration in Harvard Kennedy School . "We might have to leave immediately but people have their lives here - apartments, leases, classes and community. These are not things you can walk away from overnight ." And the ban doesn't just affect current students, the 30-year-old New Zealander says. "Think about the incoming ones, people who already turned down offers from other schools and planned their lives around Harvard . They're totally stuck now." Additonal reporting by Mengchen Zhang .
