May 23 (UPI) -- A federal judge in Massachusetts on Friday issued an injunction that blocks President Donald Trump's administration from stopping Harvard University's enrollment of international students.

The Trump administration may not proceed with an order that blocks Harvard from using the Student and Exchange Visitor Program, U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Massachusetts Allison D. Burroughs said in her written ruling.

Such an order would cause Harvard to "sustain immediate and irreparable injury before there is an opportunity to hear from all parties," Burroughs wrote.

On Thursday, the Trump administration blocked Harvard from using the SEVP process to enroll foreign students, because of the school's "refusal to comply with multiple requests to provide the Department of Homeland Security pertinent information while perpetuating an unsafe campus environment that is hostile to Jewish students."
