Number Of Indian Graduates In US Rises

Applications from Indian students to universities in the US for graduate studies have stabilized now, according to a new report. India, China and South Korea are the three largest countries of origin for international graduate students in the US, as per the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) report. "Applications from India and South Korea appear to have stabilized after significant declines last year: there was a 2 per cent decline from India and no change from South Korea this year," the report revealed. "The continued recovery in international graduate applications has been a positive trend," CGS President Ms Debra W Stewart said. "However, we must not be overconfident. The lack of growth from India and South Korea is an ongoing concern, and as we saw in 2009, an increase in applications does not necessarily result in equivalent enrollment growth," she added.
