Trump suggests 15% cap on foreign students at Harvard, says he wants Ivy 'to be great again'
Briefly

President Trump called for Harvard University to reduce its international student enrollment from 31% to around 15%, arguing that it hinders American students' admission chances. Following a halt on federal aid and restrictions imposed on the university over its handling of antisemitic incidents, Trump criticized Harvard's treatment of the U.S. and proposed reallocating federal funds towards trade schools instead. He emphasized the need for educational reform, particularly in vocational training, highlighting concerns about Harvard's endowment and its perception among the public regarding foreign enrollments.
I think they should have a cap of maybe around 15%, not 31%. We have people who want to go to Harvard and other schools, [but] they can't get in because we have foreign students there.
Harvard is treating our country with great disrespect. I want Harvard to be great again.
They're taking $5 billion and I'd rather see that money go to trade schools. And by the way, they're totally antisemitic at Harvard, as you know, and some other colleges too.
Every time they fight, they lose another $250 million. Yesterday we found another $100 million.
