Trump escalates war with Harvard: 'They're getting in deeper and deeper'

  • The White House moved in 2025 to revoke Harvard University's certification to enroll foreign students, escalating a dispute between the administration and Harvard.
  • This action followed President Trump's false claim that Harvard offers remedial math courses covering simple addition, which Harvard denies offering.
  • Harvard introduced Mathematics MA5 in fall 2024 as a new format of its longstanding freshman calculus course to support students with algebra skills weakened by the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • The median math SAT score for Harvard's latest undergraduate class was 790 out of 800, with an ACT median of 35 out of 36 and an average GPA of 4.2, underscoring the university's high academic standards.
  • The dispute suggests ongoing tensions between the administration and Harvard, though experts affirm Harvard offers no remedial arithmetic classes, and its calculus courses remain college-level.
