Fewer International Students Coming to the US
US Immigration / By Anna Maria

The number of international students studying in US universities and colleges increased to a record-breaking 1.08 million during 2016 and 2017, including the 7252 international students attending the University of Buffalo. But last week, the Institute of International Education (IIE) released data showing that new international students, enrolling for the first time at such institutions in 2016, had fallen from the previous year by as many as 10,000.

This is the first time the numbers have fallen in the 12 years that such data has been collected. IIE experts say that a combination of local and worldwide economic conditions, together with more opportunities for higher education in overseas countries are the reasons for the fall.

How can our public universities be expected to turn a profit with this happening.

This is the bread and butter for some of the universities. If internationals go elsewhere, it will be crippling for some schools.

Too bad.

A lot of these colleges DESERVE to lose money, even go bankrupt.
... when one considers the quality of education that students are receiving, and the anti-American environments that too many colleges allow to continue.

If that makes me sound like I'm "anti-education"... well... I am.

Even foreign students are tired of the leftist indoctrination of most US universities.  Heck if I were a student today I'd consider studying outside of the country.

If that makes me sound like I'm "anti-education Frankfurt School Indoctrination"... well... I am.

Universities and their Tenured Academics have made such a Clusterf##k of 'Education' students aren't even supposed to be able to know which of 2 genders they are.

Yes, most of these internationals pay "full fare."
