Keeping the Doors Open to International StudentsPrint this Article | Send to Colleague IIE recently released new Open Doors® data showing that the number of international students coming to the United States had jumped by 10 per cent to total almost 1 million students from more than 200 countries.
In a powerful commentary piece in Times Higher Education, "Keeping the Doors Open to International Students," Rajika Bhandari, IIE’s Deputy VP for Research and evaluation, noted that "the release of this much-awaited annual data was tragically book-ended by the terrorist attacks in Paris and by statements from several governors in the U.S. declaring that they would close the doors of their states to Syrian refugees because one of the Paris attackers posed as a refugee."
