nternational student enrollment at U.S. colleges and universities could fall by up to 111,000 students this fall, according to a new study. It estimates a 9.5% drop and warns of broader economic effects for U.S. universities and local communities driven in part by the Trump administration's tougher immigration policies. CGTN's Sean Callebs spoke with Xiaofeng Wan, Founder and CEO of Wan College Admissions Consulting, about why international students are reconsidering U.S. colleges, why some students are building Plan B and Plan C options, and what the shift could mean for U.S. research, innovation and universities. 0:00 Why tougher U.S. visa rules are pushing students elsewhere 1:32 Why international students face growing uncertainty 2:23 How fewer international students could hurt U.S. innovation 3:20 Why students are building Plan B and Plan C 4:26 How international students impact U.S. colleges financially 5:30 Can the U.S. win international students back? #bizshow #foreigns
