新闻美国正失掉对外国留学生的吸引力

美国仍然是留学生的首选目的地，现在有超越100万人，是排在这以后的英国具有的留学生人数的两倍多。但依据世界教育协会（IIE）年度敞开门户陈述的数据，上一年来美留学生添加了1.5％，但重生入学率，特别是本科生，下降了6.6％，上一年也是相同的趋势。

教育工作者表明，美国公立大学每年的膏火约为2万美元，精英私立大学的膏火超越7万美元，在全球竞赛加重的情况下，这使得美国对世界学生的吸引力下降

世界教育协会的发言人凯瑟琳·莫里斯表明，65％的世界学生依托“世界资金来历”，“超越一半的学生（59％）则靠自己的个人和家庭赞助。”

在本科生中则有82％依托个人和家庭赞助。大多数外国学生不符合取得美国校园的经济援助的规范。

来自我国和印度的留学生占世界学生的近一半，分别为363,341人和196,271人。两年前印度的货币政策调整导致许多期望前往美国肄业的学生失掉了资金来历。而在世界学生中占主导的我国学生，据报导对身边的美国学生取得补助而自己付全额膏火越来越不满。

美国大学协会主席林恩帕斯克雷拉说，“现在的高等教育财务形式是不行继续的。”他说，“咱们不能一直对世界进步膏火或添加国内学生的借款债款。”

US Losing Its Luster for Foreign Students

The U.S. remains the top destination in the world for more than 1 million visiting students — hosting more than double the next country, the United Kingdom. But while 1.5 percent more students studied in the U.S. last year, the rate of new enrollments — specifically, undergraduate students — declined by 6.6 percent, a trend first seen the preceding year, according to the Institute for International Education’s (IIE) annual Open Doors report.

Tuition costs of around $20,000 a year for public institutions to more than $70,000 for elite private universities, make the U.S. look less attractive to international students, as global competition increases, educators said.

65% of international students rely on “international funding sources” said IIE spokesperson Catherine Morris, “with well over half of all students (59 percent) funded through their own personal and family funding.”

Among undergraduates, 82 percent rely on personal and family funding. Most are not eligible for financial aid at U.S. schools.

China and India send nearly half of all international students, 363,341 and 196,271, respectively, to the U.S. A currency correction in India two years ago wiped out funding sources for many students there hoping to head to the U.S. And Chinese students, who dominate the population of international students, report growing discontent with paying full tuition next to subsidized domestic students.

“The current financial model for higher education isn’t sustainable,” offered Lynn Pasquerella, president of the Association of American Colleges and Universities. “We can’t raise tuitions and have burgeoning loan debts” for international or domestic students.
