On Monday, the Chinese government warned students to be aware of possible visa restrictions or even rejection if they want to study in the United States.
For a period of time, some Chinese who want to pursue their studies in the US have encountered visa problems, including a longer waiting time for visas to be issued, a shortened term of visa validity and a rising rate of visa applications being rejected, according to the Ministry of Education.
Such problems are exerting negative influence on Chinese who plan to study or are studying in the US, the ministry added.
The ministry suggested students and scholars be aware of the risk, assess the risk and make preparations accordingly before deciding to study in the US.
