The number of Indians securing US student visas has witnessed a dramatic plunge, diving by over 44 per cent in August 2025, according to data released on Monday. This marks the steepest drop among all countries and signals a major shift in global student mobility trends, with China now surpassing India as the leading source of US student visas.
The International Trade Commission reported that the US issued a total of 313,138 student visas in August — a critical month for university admissions — which reflects a 19.1 per cent decline compared to the previous year.
India, which was the largest contributor of international students to the US last year, experienced a staggering 44.5 per cent reduction in visa issuances, which equaled 42,666.

Reflecting this changing landscape, students are increasingly seeking alternatives. Anirudh Kumar Mishra from Uttar Pradesh, who studied in Hyderabad, chose to enroll at Heidelberg University in Germany, citing the “transparent visa process and welcoming approach” there.
Amit Kumar opted for Australia, stating, “Given the uncertainties in the US, Australia’s programmes and post-study work options were more attractive.”
Neha Raj decided to forgo her US plans altogether, choosing instead to study in India and prepare for the CAT exams. She said, “With rising visa challenges, quality education in India feels like a safer and more practical option right now.”

Oooh, but I am not caring.
Because they won’t be able to make a seamless transition from Student Visas to Work Visas.
They were just gaming the system.
Getting rid of indians is great but we need to get rid of red chinese too.
They need to curry more favor with Trump
Do we have the people to fill the jobs they are supposedly “stealing” from our citizens? Like Doctors??
Let’s shoot for 100%!
I see what you did there.

Sure we have them. Salaries for doctors may go up but that is the DOMESTIC FREE MARKET FOR LABOR WORKING as it should.
Don’t be a traitor.
There is no such thing as a labor shortage. There are only wage shortages.
My doctor is Indian. I have the deepest respect for him.
Maybe you need a little aging.
I'm 82....female...degree in engineering...and finally retired at age 75.
What are you a socialist or a Communist because you have no faith that the USA CAN PRODUCE ITS OWN DOCTORS WITHOUT 3rd worlders. Listen you piece of globalist sh1+ there are millions of Americans to fill those student sears. So F off. I hope your dot headed doc gets deported.
Your silly fear tactics. NO LONGER WORK.
Find an American doc. Having a crush on your doc at your age is silly.
