the United States are the most sought after international students,
followed by students from China, India, Canada, and Russia, a new
report finds. Based on a survey of more than 500 higher education
institutions in Europe, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, the
report found that 99% of the colleges and universities surveyed
expressed interest in attracting more U.S. students, citing in part a
desire to become more globally competitive and promote research and
academic collaboration with U.S. institutions. And more than 60% of the
institutions said they had developed outreach or marketing strategies
targeting U.S. students.Institute of International Education.. (2008).
