(Forbes) Last school year brought a 4% increase in the number of international students coming to U.S. universities and colleges, according to a new report from the Institute of International Education. However, the recent jump in international enrollment still lagged behind pre-pandemic numbers that topped more than one million, a level that was first attained in 2015-2016 and sustained through 2019-2020. The data also indicated a 9% drop in the number of students from China, the country that for years has sent the most students to the United States. Germany, Spain and France, by contrast, experienced dramatic increases in enrollment by students.
