A federal judge on Friday blocked the Trump administration from revoking Harvard University's ability to enroll international students — but President Trump said Friday he could strike a "deal" to resolve his battles with the Ivy League school within days.
The preliminary injunction from U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs bars the government from cutting off Harvard's access to the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System, a federal database that keeps track of student visa applications. The Boston-based judge had previously blocked the policy through a temporary restraining order.
Minutes later on Friday, Mr. Trump posted on Truth Social that his administration has been "working closely with Harvard, and it is very possible that a Deal will be announced over the next week or so."
"They have acted extremely appropriately during these negotiations, and appear to be committed to doing what is right," the president wrote. "If a Settlement is made on the basis that is currently being discussed, it will be "mindbogglingly" HISTORIC, and very good for our Country."
Mr. Trump did not provide further details on the settlement talks. CBS News has reached out to Harvard and the White House for comment on the discussions.
