Hong Kong University Takes Step After US Halts International Enrolments at Harvard

The Chinese university said the move will help "ensure a smooth transition" for students who may be unable to enroll for the next academic year.

The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has extended unconditional offers to international students at Harvard, following recent US government actions that have impacted the university’s ability to enroll them.

The Chinese university said the move will help “ensure a smooth transition” for students who may be unable to enroll for the next academic year. More than 1,000 Chinese students are currently studying at the prestigious Ivy League institution.

The move comes amid growing tensions between the US government and Harvard, with the Department of Homeland Security raising concerns about campus security and alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

Meanwhile, Harvard has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, arguing that the decision will have a devastating impact on thousands of international students. The university is also suing over cuts of more than USD 2 billion in federal funding.
