Open Doors predicted continued growth of international enrollment for the 2024-25 academic year, based on its preliminary fall findings. Dive Insight:Though international students make up just 6% of higher education students, they play an important role in the sector and in the economy more broadly. With recent gains, international student enrollment has now recovered from steep losses seen during the pandemic. Monday's report found that international enrollment rose 3% in fall 2024 compared to the year before. Nevertheless, Allan Goodman, CEO of IIE, expects international enrollment to remain resilient amid the political transition, he told reporters Wednesday.
