[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Not surprising, more transparent process, greater focus on academic achievement over ECs, greater value for the money and a host of outstanding institutions to apply to, expect the numbers to continue to grow. "

Yes but none of those are really the main reason American students are now considering universities abroad.  I’m going to go with the assault of freedom of speech and vast cuts to research as main reasons. [/quote]

You do you. My children and their friends applied UCAS for the reasons in the earlier post. Frankly, most American students abroad are not making protests about free speech and due process. The transparency and aligned focus of the application process seems genuinely invested in scholarship and not some vague social engineering experiment. If one wants to apply as an underprivileged class,  one has a route for that too. It is all very clear and it's refreshing.[/quote] Curious how you left out the research cuts, which do affect most Americans.[/quote]
