I agree with xboxboy. I think that under a Trump administration, the party will eventually be over for foreign students (from any country) taking coveted seats from our stateside public universities while American freshman applicants get to live in their parents’ back bedroom and duke it out with their local (underfunded) community college registrar for needed classes whilst attempting to get their associate degrees in two years (a nearly impossible feat in many CA CC’s).

Also, Esco has it wrong about UCSD. 4,000 likely represents the amount of FRESHMEN it admits from China every year. When you count ALL its students, including grad students, the number it has from China (foreign students, NOT Chinese American) is more like 15-16K. All these students (and more OOC/OOS students) are taking up seats from CA HS graduates who had an expectation during HS (and rightly so) to attend a public university in their own state which offers their desired program AFTER they did everything necessary to get admitted.
