On Monday, the White House announced plans to cancel millions of dollars allocated to international education programmes, according to a report by Katherine Knott in Inside Higher Ed. The move would affect funding for overseas student exchanges and research collaborations, though the administration has not yet released a detailed budget or explanation.
Knott’s article, published on September 28, 2026, does not provide further specifics on which programmes will be cut or how the reductions will be implemented. The announcement comes amid ongoing debates over federal support for international academic partnerships.
As of now, no official statement from the White House has clarified the scope or rationale behind the proposed cancellations.
