HONG KONG — Chinese students studying in the U.S. are scrambling to figure out their futures after U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Wednesday that some students would have their visas revoked.The U.S.

The Biden administration has recently imposed restrictions on foreign student visas, including revoking Harvard University's ability to enroll international students, leading to widespread concern among educational institutions and advocacy groups. While legal challenges temporarily blocked some actions, policies such as suspending visa interviews and expanding social media vetting have created uncertainty and delays for thousands of students worldwide. Critics argue these measures serve as a chilling message, undermining the United States' reputation as a welcoming destination for international scholars and students.
