Description: Foreign students and international education in general are increasingly becoming an important focus of attention for U.S. universities, as well as universities in other countries hosting large numbers of foreign students. This publication, with its focus on one area of foreign student issues: the development of policy relations to foreign students by governments and higher education institutions, appear therefore, at an important period in the evolution of policies on foreign students, among the major host nations. Comprising two parts, a bibliography, and an extensive essay that provides an evaluatory overview, from a comparative perspective, of the key topics within the area of foreign student policy, this publication represents the Comparative Education Center's continuing research interest in international education.
