Jan. 28 (Xinhua) -- While international admission by U.S. universities and
colleges shows signs of flattening in the past two years, Fan Yilan, the
sophomore at the University of Texas (UT) at Austin, still feels a strong growth
of Chinese enrollment against the general trend.
"In China, it's not in decline at all. It's in the opposite way. It's increasing. There're more Chinese students seeking education abroad in the
United States," the girl from Beijing told Xinhua.
WEALTH AND PROSPECTS
The annual Open Doors Data released in November by the Institute of International Education of the United States (IIE) showed that the students from
China to U.S. higher education topped 350,700 in the academic year of
201617 http://www.buffalosabresteamstore.com/adidas-johan-larsson-jersey ,
a rise of 6.8 percent over the previous year.
They accounted for 32.5 percent of the whole international students in the United States, topping the ranks for the eighth year.
"We would like to join it and experience more. I think that's the main part why we choose to study abroad. We want to learn what they do here and to enjoy
the experience of studying abroad," said Fan, who majors in accounting and
economy.
The IIE report also said that despite the "strong growth in the number of international students studying in the United States in the past decade, with an
increase of 85 percent since 200607, the new findings signal a slowing of
growth, with a 3 percent increase compared to increases of 7 to 10 percent for
the previous three years."

admission officials and students at the University of Southern California (USC)
gave sharper insights, for it is centrated and diversified in international
students, especially Chinese.
"As Chinese develops better and better, more people are able to afford the tuition fees. Most of the top education institutions are located in the United
States and Europe, so Chinese parents want to send their kids outside to open
their mind and to explore different education systems," Joyce Wang, a Chinese
student at
USC http://www.buffalosabresteamstore.com/adidas-jason-kasdorf-jersey ,
told Xinhua.
Ben Lee, Associate Director of Master of Communication Management Program at USC, noticed that Chinese parents need to be more calculative in sending their
children to study in the United States.
"I would say that at the same time, the outcome for a student and his family investing in overseas education is no longer that simple. The Chinese market and
its employers can now distinguish overseas students with strong experiences from
strong programs from those who are just there from a mediocre program and not
working hard to benefit from their stay abroad," Ben told Xinhua.
SHATTERING STEREOTYPE AND INTEGRATE
U.S. media reports used to depict Chinese students as nerd or just rich kids, but actually more of them are breaking this stereotype.
"We're participating in all the organizations and trying to take initiative to position ourselves," said
Fan http://www.buffalosabresteamstore.com/adidas-jake-mccabe-jersey ,
strongly denying the media reports.
During her freshman year, Fan joined an Asian interest authority and made a lot of local friends to have fun together, which provided her with better
understanding of the culture.
She also undertakes volunteer jobs and fundraising with schoolmates, as well as helps organize some events to promote Asian culture.
"So I think it is really a fun part not only me, but a lot of my friends. We are really trying to participate in all the events in college," she added.
GOING HOME AFTER GRADUATION
As those coming to America are on the rise, the number of returnees with competitive degrees and promising projects has been going
strong http://www.buffalosabresteamstore.com/adidas-jacob-josefson-jersey ,
too.
According to the education branch of the Chinese Embassy in the United States, the total number of Chinese youth studying in America and then going
home after graduation has been rising in the past 5 years.
Cen Jianjun, the diplomat in charge of education affairs, recently told Xinhua that the surge back home has corresponded with the prosperity of their
motherland, which promises preferential policies and better prospects.
"They pin hope on China's future," added Cen.
