Indian Students at Harvard: Navigating Uncertainty Amid Trump Era Policies

Indian students at Harvard University are grappling with unprecedented uncertainty due to the Trump administration's policies, which have targeted the institution with revocations of funding and student programs. Students expressed feelings of anxiety over job opportunities and visa statuses amidst an increasingly volatile environment.

The policies have led to significant challenges for these students, many of whom planned to work in the US post-graduation. The Trump administration's freeze on $2.2 billion in grants and restrictions on the enrolment of international students have created an atmosphere of instability for current students and those intending to enroll.

Even amid these challenges, a sense of resilience prevails. Students are seeking alternative pathways globally, while Harvard's administration shows strong support for its international community. Despite the setbacks, the spirit of adaptation and collaboration continues to thrive within the student body.
