Foreign Student Enrollment at U.S. Graduate Schools Up in 2005
Washington -- First-time enrollment of foreign students at U.S. graduate institutions increased 1 percent from 2004 to 2005, following three years of declines, the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) reports, citing improved admissions and streamlined visa processes as "producing results" to reverse the trend.
According to the CGS study released November 7, first-time enrollment of graduate students from countries in the Middle East at U.S. graduate institutions increased 11 percent from 2004. First-time enrollments from Korea were up 5 percent, and from China and India, up 3 percent each during the same period, the study found.
The CGS data were the final segment of a three-part 2005 survey, part of a multiyear examination of international graduate admission trends.
