The visa revocation measure mainly affected students who committed crimes such as assault, drunk driving and theft. About 4,000 visas have been canceled due to violations, and 200-300 for terrorism-related activities. The Trump administration has imposed stricter background checks, requiring students to disclose their social media accounts to identify potential threats to national security. The policy has generated regret among international students applying to US universities.
