An Open Doors Report on International Educational Exchange released on Nov. 17 in Washington DC finds that the number of international students at colleges and universities in the United States increased by 8 percent to a record high of 886,052 students in the 2013/14 academic year. This growth has largely been driven by students from China. Chinese student enrollments increased by 17 percent in total to more than 274,000 students, and the increase at undergraduate level was 18 percent. The report also found that more American students were choosing to study abroad as well, and China has now become one of the five most popular host destinations for American students.
Peggy Blumenthal, senior counselor to the president of Institute of International Education, told journalists that there are several reasons for the growing number of Chinese students studying in the US. First of all, the rapid development of the Chinese economy allows more families to support their children in studying overseas. Secondly, some Chinese parents hope that their children will experience less pressure during their studies than in the academic hot-house of mainland China. Some Chinese students have already set themselfves a future goal of working in the field of economic and trade cooperation between China and US. They want not only to study, but also to learn about American culture. The US academic model of choosing your major after your freshman year is also popular with foreign students since they can have additional time to select their future path.
