Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) overturns U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs' ruling that blocked the Trump administration's attempt to bar Harvard University from enrolling foreign students. The market will resolve based on official court documents or reputable news sources confirming such a decision.

Background

On May 23, 2025, Judge Allison Burroughs issued a ruling that temporarily blocked the Trump administration's effort to revoke Harvard University's certification to enroll international students. This action was in response to a lawsuit filed by Harvard, which argued that the administration's move violated constitutional rights and would adversely affect thousands of international students. The administration had accused Harvard of fostering an unsafe environment and alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party, claims that Harvard contested. (reuters.com)

• The timeline for such a decision can be lengthy, often spanning several months to years.

• Traders should monitor official court communications and reputable news outlets for updates on this case.

Resolution Criteria

• Resolves "YES" if this decision is appealed to the Supreme Court and the Court reverses the previous decision, allowing the Trump admin to block foreign enrollment at Harvard.

• Resolves "NO" if the decision is not appealed, if Harvard decides to comply without a Court ruling, etc.
