Ummm....that's not how it works. International students pay the full amount of tuition which helps keep it lower for our kids.
Wrong.
I know many Indians that go to state schools in Texas and get scholarships and help.
Stop with the chamber of commerce propaganda
Your anecdote doesn't make it wrong. This is across the board generally true that they pay full freight.
And to counter your anecdote, my kid is on a college sports team that is about half not from the US. They all pay full freight (we are not D1 so no athletic money). I know this having talked with their parents and the kids (they come to play notwithstanding that school in their own countries is significantly cheaper; many don't finish out 4 years for that reason).

Indian student enrollment in US universities has dropped by nearly 75% in the first year of the second administration of Donald Trump.
According to reports from various education consultants, this is due to visa checks, fewer interview slots, and large-scale visa cancellations as the main reasons behind this sharp fall.
Reacting to the situation, V. Ramgopal Rao, Vice-Chancellor of BITS Pilani, said the sharp fall in enrolments should not be seen as temporary.

A culture that exports its own children has no hope
A culture that promotes multiple parental sacrifices for the sake of their children's future is full of hope.
A culture that desperately sends its children overseas with the hope they extract the parents and cousins , has no hope
Pretty much how the US has worked for a very long time.

Fewer talented immigrants to make our economy vibrant. More poorly prepared Americans in our colleges. Not something to celebrate.

Had nothing to do with the excellence of US universities and everything to do with US globalists wanting cheap labor
The U.S. is quickly becoming poison
The wealthy (and these usually are) are rethinking their children's future.

That may be anecdotally true for you, but generally speaking, international students are full pay. Look it up.
That PP chud doesn't know any "Indians" like actually from India.
Many racists don't know the difference between an Indian and an Indian American.
Yes, the latter should go to state schools with scholarships if the school wants to give them.

Trump increased Chinese students by 600,000.
China is playing Trump like a violin. They buy his Trump coin cryptos for hundreds of millions of dollars and there are so many favorable policies towards China now. Meanwhile, China hasn't bought any soybeans from American farmers for months following the Trump tariffs, and we the taxpayer are paying the soybean farmers to do nothing. MAGA!

It's merely a reflection of conditions being much worse where people come from, same as with all the immigrants from Central and South America. It's a one-way highway for a reason. People are motivated by the potential for economic prosperity; few care at all about the ever-changing and always temporary changes of direction of the U.S. gov't, as long as the U.S. continues to be seen as relatively prosperous when compared to other countries.

That doesn't solve the need for more doctors.
In underserved or health professional shortage areas, a large % of doctors are immigrants.
