With almost 30,000 students, Harvard University is under fire from the Trump administration, which has slashed more than 2 billion in subsidies.

On Wednesday, April 16, President Donald Trump’s administration issued a warning that Harvard University would be prohibited from enrolling foreign students if it failed to comply with restrictions on admissions, hiring, and political orientation.

Following his earlier threats to cut off federal funding to the world-renowned American university, the president has stepped up his criticisms of the institution.

American president Trump tweeted on Truth Social two days after cutting $2.2 billion in multi-year federal funding to Harvard, saying, “Harvard teaches hatred and imbecility.”

For years, Harvard has been unchallenged at the top of the Shanghai world rankings of higher education institutions.

The struggle goes on.
