Abstract

In 2006, the United States attracted 30 percent of internationally mobile students among the leading eight host countries (Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom). This article draws upon key findings from the International Student Census of the recent Open Doors 2007: Report on International Educational Exchange to describe the current international student population in the United States and to examine the future trends in international enrollment. This article covers the following topics of origins, student profile and fields of study, destinations, and future trends in international student enrollment.
