An Associated Press article reports that a new survey shows international interest in studying at American graduate schools declined for the second straight year, a sign of the continued impact of visa delays and growing competition from foreign universities. The article quotes Steven L. Shaw, director of international admissions, who says at UB applications this year actually are up 15 percent compared to last year when they fell 31 percent. The article ran in more than 65 outlets throughout the world, including The New York Times. Go to article.
