As a result of various restrictions, outside students have lost interest in pursuing higher education in the United States. As a result, there is pressure on American colleges and universities. The US economy is also hurting.For more than a year now, internal students in the United States have been plagued by Covid-19 infections and continuous lockdowns. After school graduation, the academic years are going through various complications with admission in college-university.
Of these, the problems of students who come to America every year for higher education have become more difficult. The United States receives many international students from around the world each year. On average, more than one million foreign students add about ৪ 41 billion to the US economy each year. International students contribute to more than 4.5 million jobs every year.
International students pay high tuition fees at colleges and universities in the United States. As a result, many college-university courses require lower tuition fees for American students.The four years of former President Trump and the Covid-19 epidemic have reduced or made it harder for international students to come to the United States.
Stephen Yale-Lohr, a professor of immigration and law at Cornell University, said the Biden administration needs to make some decisions as a matter of priority. Failure to do so would harm not only international students but also the American economy.
From 2006 to 2016, the number of international students arriving in the United States increased by 60 percent. The situation changed when Trump was elected president in 2016.In an article written by the influential news outlet The Hill, Professor Stephen said the influx of international students has dropped dramatically since Trump came to power. As a result, the US economy has to pay দশ 11.6 billion and 65,000 jobs.Throughout his tenure, Trump has made efforts to control the influx of international students. Among them, he canceled job opportunities for international students while studying.He takes on international students to return home after graduation.
Trump was complaining that many international students received higher education in the United States and became involved in espionage. Trump also brought allegations of intellectual property theft in the case of high school students from abroad.
Trump made it difficult for foreign students to obtain H-1 visas to work in the United States after completing their education.The rate of rejection of H-1 visa applications quadrupled during Trump's tenure due to various searches and document scams. U.S. embassies are virtually closed due to lockdowns in foreign countries. Travel bans are imposed due to health risks. Such a ban is still in force.
Hateful attitudes and attacks against Asians who have been waiting for work permits in the United States have exacerbated the situation.
As a result, by the end of the 2020 academic year, the enrollment rate of international students in US colleges and universities has dropped by 72 percent. Professor Stephen noted in his article that the US economy lost 1.8 billion in the 2019-20 academic year alone. In addition, there is a shortage of 42,000 jobs in the United States.
International hope has been instilled in international students since President Biden took office. Applications for higher education from abroad have already multiplied in US colleges and universities.Professor Stephen said a survey of students from 40 countries found that 6 percent of Americans now have a positive attitude towards higher education.
