A government accountability watchdog says in its March 2025 report, released Friday, that most of America’s elite universities have been accepting large dole-outs from foreign entities, including from China.

The report by Americans for Public Trust (APT) says that in 2024 alone, entities based in China poured $176.6 million into the U.S. tertiary education system, although the annual figure is only a fraction of the $60 billion in gifts and contracts coming from “long-standing adversaries” in “past decades.”
