The Trump administration will start revoking visas for some Chinese students, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Wednesday.
The State Department and Department of Homeland Security will work 'aggressively to revoke visas for Chinese students, including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields,' Rubio said in a statement.
He also said the department will also revise visa criteria to enhance scrutiny of all future visa applications from China and Hong Kong.
China has the second highest number of international students pursing higher education in the United States in 2023/2024 with 277,398 students, according to the Institute of International Education.
