International students studying in Louisiana, including in New Orleans, have had their student visas revoked by the Trump administration, putting them at risk of detention or deportation. At least six students in New Orleans and additional students across the state have had their visa status terminated, with some targeted for expressing pro-Palestinian views. University officials have confirmed the revocations, but reasons for the action have not been provided. The visa terminations are a part of President Trump’s immigration crackdown and have affected students at over 90 colleges and universities nationwide. Some students have been detained or had legal status terminated despite not being involved in protests. A series of lawsuits have been filed by organizations such as the ACLU against the Department of Homeland Security on behalf of impacted students. University officials are working to provide legal resources and support to affected students while expressing concern for their safety and well-being. The situation remains fluid, with privacy laws complicating efforts to provide more information on the revocations.
