The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on Wednesday announced that the number of Indian students studying in the United States has been increased by 12 percent by 2021. At the same time, the number of China students has seen a drop of 8 percent. USCIS authorities have said that the Corona effect is still prevalent as students are thinking twice about traveling.
The government authorities revealed that the number of students studying on F-1 and M-1 visas in 2021 is 1,236,748. When compared to 2020, this is almost 1.2 percent less.
“The majority of foreign students coming to study in the United States are Chinese and Indian students. However, the number of Chinese students was less in 2021 and the number of Indian students has increased,” the USCIS revealed in a statement.
