Nine universities in the UK rely on Chinese student for more than a fifth of their total tuition income, it has been revealed.
The startling numbers come as ministers brace themselves for a reduction in the 120,000 Chinese students on British soil next year as tensions rise with Beijing.
This morning, China warned British businesses 'retaliation is coming' and they could be 'in the firing line' after the UK banned Huawei from the nation's 5G network.
Ministers fear a retaliation in the education sector as well, with less Chinese students expected to join British universities next year.
New data shows the extent to which universities across the country are reliant on Chinese students, with the University of Glasgow topping the league table.
