For those of you who are either already studying in the United States or plan to one day, it might be interesting to know something about the foreign student populatio
9、n in the United States. For the academic year 1995/96 there was a total of approximately 344,000 foreign students studying in the United States. This figure of 344,000 may seem like a very large number until you pare it with the total population of 241,000,000. The foreign student population has bee
10、n growing for a number of years and is still growing, but the rate of increase has dropped sharply during the 1990s. During the 1980s, the population grew quite rapidly. For example, between 1985 and 1990, the average yearly increase was 12.5%. However, the picture in the 1990s is quite different. T
11、he rate of increase has declined quite noticeably. In fact, the rate of increase between 1994/95 and 1995/96 was only .5%, or one-half of one percent. Although the overall rate of increase has dropped to only .5%, the number of students from some parts of the world is increasing while the number of
12、students from other areas is decreasing. For example, during this same time period, that is between the academic years 94/95 and 95/96, there was a decrease in the number of students from the Middle East, while the number of students from South and East Asia increased. These changes in the number of
13、 students ing from different parts of the world no doubt reflected changing economic and political situations. Im sure you are aware of many of these changes, and perhaps we can discuss them at our next meeting. For today lets confine our talk to first, a discussion of the origin of these students,
14、or, in other words, where they e from; second, the kinds of studies they pursue; and, finally, the academic levels they are found in. If we have a little time left, we might quickly discuss in which geographic areas most of them go to school. Lets discuss the origins of the foreign student populatio
15、n in the United States for the academic year 1995/96. Lets discuss it in order from those areas sending the most students to those areas sending the fewest students. If we look at the figures provided by the annual census of foreign students in the United States for the year 1995/96, we see that mos
16、t of the foreign students studying in the United States during this year were from South and East Asia. This is a rather large geographical area which includes such countries as China, Korea, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia. The total number of students from this area, South and East Asia was 156,830. In other words, roughly 2 out of every 5 foreign students e from South and East Asia. Almost 24,000 of this total were from China. Malaysia was clo
