The Trump Administration has ordered US embassies to halt all student visa applications as the president cracks down on America's higher education business.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has directed officials to stop scheduling appointments with student visa applicants as they prepare to implement a social media vetting process, according to a cable obtained by Politico.
'Effective immediately, in preparation for an expansion of required social media screening and vetting, consular sections should not add any additional student or exchange visitor (F, M, and J) visa appointment capacity until further guidance is issued septel, which we anticipate in the coming days,' the cable states.
The Institute of International Education Open Doors data report found that in 2023-2024 academic year, the United States hosted a record-breaking 1.1 million international students - including an estimated 10,000 British students.
These students generated $43.8 billion through tuition, housing and living expenses, according to NAFSA: Association of International Educators.
Donald Trump has waged war on elite universities, accusing them of antisemitism and blasting their 'woke' ideology.
At the beginning of his second term, Trump ordered the deportation of foreign students who took part in pro-Hamas protests on college campuses in the US.
Harvard has borne the brunt of Trump's fire but it is also fighting back just as hard and sued the administration.
Actually why is he destroying American institutions instead of making them great??
The Trump administration has paused new student visa interviews to implement stricter social media vetting, aiming to screen out applicants perceived as threats to national security or those promoting antisemitism, particularly focusing on individuals allegedly linked to pro-Palestinian activism or deemed "anti-American."
my take.... these student not interested in studies.. see the amount pf protest and damage done.
USA students championing for the cause of Palestine in campus has been around for several decades. This is the first time a president using that reason to deport students.
.maybe to stop those abuse the system to get PR in the US...like how ppl enrol into unknown college or uni in OZ or NZ... cincai2 grad then can look for job there

I think he got some history with the institution... so many around but specifically target this one. Anyway good also, parents can just strike off this one from their list.

what does woke subjects have to do with foreign students??
you think most of the million students spending hundreds of thousands to study about maybe having more than 2 genders??
these are actual peoples lives that are being ruined, STEM people especially
Lololol OK you think woke is LGHDTV?? Race is woke. Showing Asian Latino Indian, Muslims =WOKE. Being aware of current issues = WOKE. The fact that Michelle yeoh got Oscar = WOKE. Lots of Muslims not portrayed as terlulison usa TV = WOKE
institutions of higher learning is not exactly fixed in place due to mineral resources or the such .
if Trump is really adamant in forcing them to move out of the US, it is feasible for them to start the shift away. EU is more than happy to give visas to the American scholars and scientists.
and that also brings along billions and billions of cutting edge industries , and their related expertise, with them

Harvard have shifted extremely left in their ideologies . they/majority support /promote anti semitism .... which is hate . support left ideas of woke , LGBTQ , man man marriage, pedo s etc.. , there are 3 sex , and man can play in womans sport .and many more progressive ideology. .
So the Q is should Harvard go on with this above ? i can see trump GOV is conservative and dont believe the above ideas. hence the push back .

For someone who has never seen what the students are doing in the campus, you sure have a big mouth. Drive cold blooded killing? What kind of accusation is that?

You are using a single person action to justify what happened to many others? If we are going to do that I can say a single person of your race selling drugs and we should give you capital punishment. This is fairness based on your own reasoning.

trust me, it's trump we're talking about...he will find ways to destroy it
at first he might announce it and think it's a "great" idea but actually it has a severe side effect
How to trust you? Mcm ini la, if Trump end his term in a spectacular positive way you apa macam?> Will you finally let go of your ego and admit he's the greatest president in the 21st century?

if he is the greatest thn why is his approval rate dropping like a stone? he is barely even 1 year into his duration

Which approval rating? Show me.
I suggest you go explore more on the views from ppl like Thomas Sowell instead of mainstream media.
Ask yourself this. In Malaysia, I assume you are non bumiputera, do you support the current bumi policy? You do realize DEI and affirmative action in America is the same policy as bumi policy in here. It's all about skin color, not merit.
So i don't understand how could someone who dislike Trump but also hate bumi policy in Malaysia. It's madness unless you're a fellow bumi, then I rest my case.
