Understanding the Costs of Federal Policy Changes for International Students Studying in the U.S.
International students are a critical enrollment asset for U.S. colleges and universities and provide a vital supply of high skilled talent to American employers. 1.1 million international students study in the U.S., contributing $43.8 billion annually to the economy. In Michigan alone, international students generate $1.4 billion in annual economic spending, with tens of thousands of graduates applying their talents at Michigan’s employers, especially in STEM fields. New federal rules affecting international students’ ability to study in the U.S. (duration of status) and work at U.S. employers afterwards (via H-1B visas) will have profound effects on colleges, universities, and employers. Learn more about the impacts of these new federal rules and how to get involved to help mitigate ramifications of the new Duration of Status and H-1B rules by visiting protectinternationalstudents.org
