The unemployment rate in USA has reached 9.1% in august(Data from: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics).
In the down economy, the university's budget and fee got cut. This may affect students on many things, such as searching for jobs, raising the tuition of international students. There are so many limits for international students to fight against nations of America. They don't have work-study opportunity, they don't have financial aid or education loans, they don't have the green card to work out of campus. Even they can work on campus, there working time got limits up to 20 hours. This is really happening to our life, I have a friend who got green card recently. And he only paid about a hundred dollars for the tuition instead of 8700 dollars. He just need to pay his loan ten years later which the inflation rate is so high these years. Another friend of mine Oscar just graduated from OSU this summer in accounting major, he said many 500 fortune companies don't accept international students. He couldn't even get the chance to the interview. But he finally found a full time job in ohio health-get paid for 1700 dollars a month. His working visa will expire in a year, after that he may have to go back to his own country or some company willing to apply H1B for him. He decided to learn GMAT and apply for a graduate school next year, so that he could get the F1 visa to stay in America. The policies against international students makes us so desperate willing to try every way to stay in America.
