U.S. schools’ foreign enrollments soar

The number of foreign students enrolled in U.S. colleges surged 7% last year to 623,805, an all-time high and the largest one-year increase on record. It is the strongest sign yet that post-9/11 declines are history. Enrollments of foreign undergraduate and graduate students just starting to pursue their degree are rising even faster â?? 10.1% last year â?? suggesting growth will continue, the report says.
