Trump-era deportations rattle US campuses as over 4,000 foreign students face removal

Over 4,000 foreign students, many from India, face deportation under US President Trump's immigration crackdown, triggering legal battles and institutional support across campuses. Universities advise affected students to stay enrolled and seek legal help while warning against international travel. With international students contributing $44 billion to the US economy, educational leaders warn of the threat to academic excellence and global talent. Arrests tied to minor infractions and protests have intensified student anxiety and self-deportations.
