International students in U.S.A concerned about financial aid and jobs

Inside Higher Education indicated that attendees of the National Association of Foreign Student Affairs received a report of new research on retention of international students indicating that a key issue in satisfaction and retention is financial aid and then job opportunities.  One attendee commented that an area that need early attention was, "how universities can help students better undersand the academic expectations and the financial burdens in the recruitment phase, prior to enrollment, so that when they get here, they're really set for success."  Since numerous international students come to the U.S.A. not understanding the role of private and public entities, some may even need to acquire an understanding that all public universities, and privates in other ways, receive funding ultimately derived from taxation to citizens of the U.S.A., something to which their families have not contributed.
