[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am absolutely all for gifted international students coming to the US for college. I think it’s a positive all around. And I get how some low endowment schools need the income of full pay international students to make things work.

But the NY Times had an article today listing the schools with the most international students. I think it’s nuts that more than 30 percent of students at Columbia, Chicago, CMU, Hopkins, and Northeastern are international. I get it for CalTech, but that’s such a specialized school. We definitely have a big enough talent pool of students - including full pay students - to fill those classes at those schools. So I’m perplexed why schools like Columbia and Northeastern are choosing to be so heavily international [/quote]

Instead of  scolding and wanting to force change in these institutions,  why can't you seek out an institution that suits your preferences and values?  There are also many universities and colleges with a much lower percentage of international students.  it sounds like that is what you would prefer for your student, so why not apply to those and try to attend one of those?[/quote]
