Overall 7% increase among international applicants in U.S.A. graduate schools

The new Council of Graduate Schools report of 2014 applications indicates an overall 7% rise for international students.  However, the data reflects a continuing small decline in applicants from China (3% in 2013 and another 1% in 2014) while applications from India continued to soar (22% in 2013 and 32% in 2014).  Applications for graduate school among talented international candidates is a critical resource for faculty researchers and represents further potential when the best of these students, once they graduate, str given the opportunity to stay in the U.S.A. to contribute to the advancement of research.
