The arrival of international students in the U.S. has seen a dramatic decline, particularly among students from Asia, due to recent visa policy changes and a growing perception of the U.S. as unwelcoming. Reports indicate that Indian student arrivals plummeted by 46%, contributing to an anticipated revenue loss of up to $7 billion for American colleges. Without the financial support and diversity international students bring, many institutions face potential closures, jeopardizing the educational landscape and economic stability. Colleges like those in Texas and Massachusetts are bracing for significant enrollment drops, with fears of losing thousands of international students. As visa delays and confusion mount, a considerable number of prospective students are choosing to turn to educational institutions in Asia instead, further diminishing the appeal of U.S. higher education.
