Additional Trends
More selective institutions, which likely have better global brand recognition, continue to experience growth in new international students (2017 and 2018) while institutions that admitted over half of their applicants—an indicator of lower selectivity—report declines
On average, Northeast schools are holding steady while schools in all other regions of the US (particularly the Midwest) are experiencing a decline in international student enrollments
On average, large private universities are seeing small gains in the number of international students on campus while regional master’s institutions are experiencing declines
More international students are choosing to study in Australia, the UK, and Canada (versus the US) than in the past.
