White Paper Excerpt
Universities, colleges and specialty educational institutions all share one problem when it comes to international student recruitment and enrolment: effective integration of international students and fee payment services for these students that ease administrative pressures.
More and more often educational institutions worldwide are focusing student recruitment efforts on international students to attract the best and the brightest from around to world.
International students numbered 1.68 million in 1999 and by 2005 that number increased to over 2.7 million. The number of higher education students expected to be enrolled outside their country of citizenship by 2025 will be 7.2 million.
France, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States receive more than 50% of all foreign students worldwide and the United States remains the most popular country for foreign study with 22% of international students worldwide choosing to study here.
The increase in foreign students represents a significant challenge and opportunity for educational institutions in the United States. There are delays, discrepancies, and the current time consuming process of invoicing and collecting tuition, accommodation and other fees for international students paying in foreign currency.
These challenges can all be simplified resulting in monetary savings for both the students and the educational institution.
