After a 15-year hiatus, India has reclaimed its status as the largest source of international students in the United States for the 2023-24 academic year, overtaking China. This significant achievement is highlighted in the latest Open Doors Report on International Educational Exchange 2024, which reveals a striking 23% increase in Indian student enrollment. Over 330,000 Indian students have chosen to pursue higher education in the U.S., reflecting a growing trend of Indian families seeking world-class academic opportunities for their children.
