US Universities Depend on International Students, Says President Trump — What This Means for Kerala Students

Major shake-up in “Study in USA” narrative opens opportunity for Indian students

Donald Trump has emphasised that international students are “good for business” and warned that a sharp drop in their enrolment could seriously threaten the financial model of American colleges and universities. 

His remarks come amid a backdrop of stricter visa and immigration policies, making the message especially relevant for Indian students considering the USA as a study destination.
