(London Bloomberg) statistics show that the number of international students in American universities has almost recovered from the decline in the crown disease.Despite the sharp decline in Chinese students in the United States, India ’s overseas students in the United States have surged, filling the blank of Chinese students' loss.
According to the "Open Doors" of the Institute of International Education (IIE), the number of foreign students from the 2022 to 2023 school year increased by 12%to nearly 1.06 million.Not far, it shows that international students have risen to the level before the epidemic.Among them, the number of Indian students surged from 199,000 in 2022 to about 35%to about 269,000, which almost caught up with the number of students who stayed in China.
Although China is still the biggest source of foreign students, China's middle -income families are now more inclined to find cheaper places such as Britain and Australia, or simply abandon foreign degrees.Some Chinese students also choose to stay in Asia and study in Singapore, Hong Kong or Malaysia.
Analysis said that China's economic growth has stagnated and the enthusiasm of students' abroad. Many families also have concerns about the tension between Sino -US relations, anti -Chinese mood abroad, and security issues in the United States.
On the other hand, India, who replaced China to become the world's most populous country, is in good economic prospects, prompting more Indian students to study in the United States.According to the data released by the World Bank, the Indian economy will increase by 6.3%this year and next, which means that the income of Indians will increase, and a richer family is more likely to send children to study abroad to improve their employment prospects.
Experts point out that for young people in India, obtaining foreign education can also increase the social status and marriage prospects of low -income families; in addition, the lack of high -quality education choices in India is also one of the reasons why young people go to the United States to advance in the United States.Essence
