Indian students are facing unprecedented challenges in their pursuit of international education. A new directive from the Trump administration limits international undergraduate enrollment to just 15%, with no more than 5% from any single country. This move disproportionately affects Indian applicants, especially those targeting affordable public universities. The memo also introduces controversial screening for “alignment with American and Western values,” raising fears of surveillance and visa denials. One such case is Kaushik Raj, an Indian journalist whose $100,000 scholarship to Columbia University was overshadowed by a rejected visa—allegedly due to social media scrutiny.
Meanwhile, Canada is tightening its student visa norms after discovering over 44,000 foreign students missing from academic rolls. With rejection rates for Indian study permits spiking to 80%, and Ottawa’s new immigration plan aiming to shrink its temporary resident population, Indian students are once again at the center of a global migration shake-up. As both countries close doors, students are left scrambling for alternatives in an increasingly hostile landscape.#IndianStudentsAbroad #USVisaBan #CanadaVisaCrisis #KaushikRaj #StudentVisaNews #StudyAbroad2025
