Except it will likely have the exact opposite effect. International students often (sometimes?) do not qualify for tuition waivers, or they qualify for a reduced amount of waiver. Therefore, the bill makes it more burdensome on domestic talent and levels the playing field for international students. Expect fewer domestic graduate STEM students and more international. Is that good or bad? I have no opinion on the matter.
