Tetr College of Business opens new doors by fully funding Harvard F-1 visa students
In response to the situation, Tetr College of Business has announced a landmark initiative to safeguard the future of international students. The leading B-school will offer full scholarships worth $200,000 and fast-track admissions for F-1 visa Harvard University students, impacted by the changes made in Harvard's Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
This initiative will expedite eligible students for admission into Tetr's upcoming 2025 cohort, starting August 2025. These students can either join Tetr's Bachelor's program in Management and Technology or the new program in Science and Artificial Intelligence. The price of both programs is approximately $200,000.
As a part of Tetr's $10 million global scholarship fund, the scheme aims to support young entrepreneurs and students worldwide. Considering the vast number of international students within Harvard's community, Tetr has showcased its willingness to back affected students, providing a smooth and supportive continuation of their world-class education.
Pratham Mittal, the founder of Tetr College of Business, said, 'The thought of any bright, enterprising student having their academic trajectory abruptly halted due to circumstances beyond their control is simply unacceptable. For these exceptional minds at Harvard, we are not just offering free education but providing an impactful launchpad to global entrepreneurship and leadership for the betterment of the world. At Tetr, we will provide them tools, community, and global exposure to realize their immense potential and channel towards creating meaningful impact without the burden of visa anxieties.'
Tetr's undergraduate programs are immersive and entrepreneurial. Students study and build businesses across seven countries, including the U.S., India, Singapore, Italy, Ghana, Brazil, and the UAE, over four years. Each semester is in a different geography, blending academic learning with hands-on venture building. Students also have the opportunity to study at partner institutions like the National University of Singapore (NUS), IIT (India), and Cornell University (USA) while receiving mentorship from the esteemed faculty of Harvard, MIT, INSEAD, and Cornell and entrepreneurs from companies like NASA, SoftBank, and Estée Lauder.
Tetr's inaugural cohort has demonstrated remarkable success with the completion of two semesters in Dubai and India. In Dubai, students launched dropshipping ventures generating $138,000+ in revenue with average profit margins of 38% in under six months. In India, their Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) startups achieved over $184,000 in revenue at a 30.6% profit margin, with several ventures now entering early funding rounds.
Tetr's hands-on models have gained significant interest, with the 2025 cohort receiving over 150,000 applications for around 100 seats. The year-on-year increase is ~50%, making it one of the most selective undergraduate business programs globally. The average SAT score of the current cohort is 1475, and students have previously turned down offers from institutions such as Dartmouth, NYU Stern, UC Berkeley, and King's College London to join Tetr.
Application procedure for Harvard students
F-1 Visa students currently enrolled at Harvard can send an email to transferadmissions@tetr.org with the following information;
• A short note outlining their current visa situation
• Proof of Harvard enrollment or admission
• A brief academic or personal profile
Tetr's admissions team will respond to the emails within 72 hours with further instructions and details on a personalized admission process. The offer is time-sensitive and dependent upon seat availability in the upcoming cohort. Students can visit www.tetr.com or drop an email to transferadmissions@tetr.org for further information.

Watch: Trump stands on White House roof, jokes about installing nuclear missiles
Donald Trump made an unexpected appearance Tuesday on a White House rooftop and joked about installing nuclear missiles at a time of escalating tensions with Russia. The US president, flanked by bodyguards and under the protection of snipers, strolled for 20 minutes on the flat roof above the press room as he looked across to the site of his proposed new ballroom. Asked why he was on the roof, he replied he was just "taking a little walk." Quizzed about what he intended to build, he joked "nuclear missiles," before appearing to mimic the launch of a weapon with his arm. The United States and Russia have engaged in heated rhetoric for several days. Trump last week ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines near Russia in response to remarks he deemed provocative by former Russian president Dmitri Medvedev. Videos circulated on social media showing Trump's surprise stroll on the roof. Take a look: There will NEVER be another President Trump ð�¤£ — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) August 5, 2025 Just taking a little walk — The White House (@WhiteHouse) August 5, 2025 Trump's imprint on the White House With his planned ballroom and other projects, Trump is determined to leave an imprint on the White House, drawing inspiration from the opulent style of his private properties. He has paved the lawn of the famous Rose Garden and adorned the Oval Office with lavish golden ornamentation. The 79-year-old leader recently announced plans for the ballroom, in what is shaping up to be the most significant project at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in over a century. He has vowed that he, with perhaps some help from private donors, would pay for all the work, estimated at $200 million. "It's just another way to spend my money for the country," he said Tuesday. A former reality TV host, Trump is known for his public appearances that are half-comical, half-provocative, delighting his supporters and providing television networks with the images they relish. In 2015, he announced his presidential candidacy after slowly descending a golden escalator. And during the last presidential campaign, he staged photo ops in a garbage truck cabin and served fries in a McDonald's restaurant.

NASA Set to Build Nuclear Reactor on Moon by 2030
NASA's interim administrator, Sean Duffy, has issued a directive to fast-track the development of a 100-kilowatt nuclear reactor destined for deployment on the Moon by 2030. This marks the first major policy initiative under Duffy's leadership and underscores a strategic shift toward sustainable and secure energy support for long-duration lunar missions. The directive instructs NASA to solicit proposals from private industry within 60 days, appoint a project leader, and design a reactor capable of powering lunar bases, habitats, and potential Mars missions. The move escalates previous plans centered on a 40 kW system to a more robust 100 kW design, reflecting the agency's renewed urgency. One of the driving motivations behind the accelerated timeline is geopolitical: China and Russia are jointly planning a lunar research base powered by nuclear technology in the mid-2030s. Duffy's directive explicitly warns that if those nations deploy a reactor first, they could declare exclusion zones that could limit U.S. access under the Artemis Accords. Nuclear power on the Moon is considered essential due to the limitations of solar energy during lunar night—each lunar night lasts about 14 Earth days—and permanently shadowed regions. A 100 kW reactor would ensure an uninterrupted energy supply for life support, communications, research labs, and robotics, particularly in regions holding potential water ice and Helium‑3 resources. This initiative aligns with NASA's broader restructuring agenda, which also includes replacing the aging International Space Station with commercially built space stations by 2030. Contracts for at least two private orbital platforms are expected within six months to maintain a U.S. human presence in Earth orbit. Despite past efforts in nuclear space power—such as the Kilopower reactor demonstrator and Fission Surface Power research programs—no reactor has yet been deployed. NASA previously awarded contracts to industry partners for designs around 40 kW, but Duffy's directive signals a major scale-up both in capacity and urgency. While ambitious, skeptics caution that technical challenges—including safe transport of enriched uranium, reliable lunar landing systems, and ensuring reactor safety—could complicate reaching the 2030 timeline. In sum, NASA's accelerated lunar reactor initiative represents a pivotal step toward ensuring energy independence and strategic advantage in the burgeoning era of Moon and Mars exploration, while also reshaping its reliance on public–private partnerships for orbital infrastructure.
