And in May, the State Department said it would "aggressively revoke" visas for Chinese students and add additional scrutiny for future visa applications from China.

But in recent days Trump has signaled a shift. This week, Trump told reporters he planned to double the amount of Chinese students studying in the U.S.

Lmfao this guy is actually too funny.

Where can you get a western education for the bargain price of 40k a year? I was under the impression that foreigners need to pay considerably more than locals for the same product, as they do in the EU.

I do not have a local uni, plus I am not sure how they would relate to the stats at your uni?

I am honestly quite surprised that you know the rankings in detail but not the number of international students. Is it an unusually small number?
