The Trump administration is considering requiring all foreign students applying to study in the United States to undergo social media vetting, according to a report in Politico.

This move comes days after the Trump administration ordered the Department of Homeland Security to terminate Harvard University's Student and Exchange Visitor Programme (SEVP) certification, a move that meant Harvard could no longer enroll foreign students.
