[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids from other countries clamor to come to the USA and attend colleges there.  There is a reason.   The universities and colleges are top-rate in the USA.  This isn’t about price. [/quote]

Not at the undergraduate level.

At the undergraduate level, we get the kids that can't get into the best colleges and universities in their home country but they have enough money to get into a good US school.  [/quote]

Trying not to wade into this battle...but this comment doesn't make any sense.  The 11,000 UK students studying in the US could absolutely get into one of the top 20 UK schools, since those schools are public and generally have high acceptance rates.

The same with any 1st world college student.

I think you actually find a decent number of foreign athletes for a number of different sports because there is no college sports outside the US, and then you do have a country like India where the IITs have less than 1% acceptance rates, and you also have many students trying to go to college in the US in order to secure an H1 visa.[/quote]
