Fewer foreign students, fewer dollars: U.S. colleges feel the pinch
October 2025 2 views 2:39U.S. colleges are facing a financial crisis as international student enrollment plummets. Universities like DePaul, Johns Hopkins, and USC are cutting jobs and slashing budgets after a sharp decline in foreign students. Visa delays, policy changes, and rising uncertainty under the Trump administration are driving students to choose other countries. This drop not only impacts higher education but also threatens billions of dollars that international students contribute to the U.S. economy.
