Graduate Applications from International Students Increase Significantly - But Numbers Remain Below 2003 Levels

CGS's latest survey of international graduate admissions reports that graduate applications from international students increased 11% from 2005 to 2006, after a two-year cumulative decline of 32%. 

While there are large gains in the volume of graduate applications from key countries/regions and in all fields of study, the number of international applications is still down 23% since 2003.
