The Trump Administration's actions on international student visas have created a turbulent landscape. Earlier in 2025, about 1,200 students had their visas abruptly canceled, causing widespread confusion. However, the Department of Justice later reinstated these visas due to various factors. More recently, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced plans to revoke visas for certain Chinese students with alleged Communist Party connections or studying in "critical fields." Additionally, the State Department paused new student visa interviews globally to enhance social media vetting. These policies have led to increased uncertainty for international students, who significantly contribute to US universities' revenue and the broader economy.
