On Campus: More international students enrolling at University of Wisconsin-Madison

Expect the incoming freshman class at UW-Madison to have a little more international flavor. After getting a 21 percent increase in international applicants, the college is expecting about 100 more international students to enroll this year. That means 519 incoming students will be foreign. That?s a trend that is playing out at other colleges, according an article in the New York Times. UW-Madison is on track for a target class of 5,700, said Adele Brumfield, UW-Madison?s new admissions director.
