Hong Kong is seizing an unexpected opportunity to attract top academic talent after the U.S. banned Harvard from enrolling international students. The city’s universities are stepping in with offers and support to affected students.
Following a decision by the U.S. administration to revoke Harvard University’s ability to accept international students—citing alleged antisemitism and links with the Chinese Communist Party—Hong Kong's Education Bureau urged local universities to take action. The Bureau encouraged institutions to introduce facilitation measures and help impacted students, including Chinese nationals who formed a significant portion of Harvard’s foreign intake.
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology has already offered streamlined admissions and academic support to students displaced by the decision. Authorities also reached out to the Harvard Club of Hong Kong, promising to monitor ongoing needs and reinforce the city’s position as a global education hub. However, some caution that Hong Kong's academic freedom has diminished under new national security teaching requirements.
