Your number of Chinese students that go to the U$ does not match the info I can find, most stuff I see says ~280k/year. There has been a pretty large drop over the past few years, and the number peaked before COVID. This drop in students has caused funding issues for U$ universities, as foreign students pay a lot more in tuition than domestic ones.
Yeah the unis in my country are having a big cry about it because they spent the last 20 years increasing executive salaries and not doing much else so without the constant and growing cashflow they’re kind of fucked.
You are correct. The 600-700k is the number of Chinese students who went overseas, not just in the US. It’s also dropped in the US as you said, before COVID it was ~370k students who went to the US in 2020.
