President Jimmy Carter stopped Iranians from entering the country and revoked 15,000 visas belonging to students from Iran.

"Immediately after the U.S. Embassy in Tehran was overrun in 1979, Carter issued an executive order that all Iranian students in the U.S. had to report to immigration officials within thirty days." This according to December 09, 2015 article by Independent Journal, which said, 15,000 Iranian students were ejected from the country.
