Harvard University faced scrutiny over its ties to China. The Trump administration accused the university of fostering antisemitism and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party. It moved to revoke Harvard's ability to enroll foreign students.

Roughly 1,200 of some 6,700 international students across all Harvard’s schools last year hailed from China, according to campus data.
