Abstract

China has promulgated a series of policies on trade, immigration, and culture, which will undoubtedly greatly impact Chinese students preparing to study in the United States. This paper focuses on the influence of American policies and a series of chain reactions on Chinese students studying in the United States since the Sino-US trade war in 2018. It analyzes the factors that affect Chinese students’ decision to study in the United States. This paper conducted a quantitative study by issuing online questionnaires, and 323 valid questionnaires were received. The basic information, educational experience, and factors affecting the respondents’ going to the United States were investigated, and a series of statistical methods were applied to analyze them. Finally, the following conclusion is drawn: the Sino-US trade war greatly influences Chinese students’ decision on whether to go to the United States, mainly including the influence of visa and professional restrictions. The factors that affect Chinese students’ decision to study abroad are family and policy factors, teacher factors, and intermediary factors.
