According to the latest Open Doors Report, more than 330,000 Indian students pursued higher education in the U.S. during the 2023-24 academic year, reflecting a remarkable 23% increase from the previous year.
This surge is primarily driven by a rise in graduate-level enrollment, which now stands at nearly 197,000 students, which is a 19% increase from the previous year and making India the largest source country for international graduate students. Additionally, the number of Indians enrolled in the Optional Practical Training program jumped by 41%, reaching 97,556 students, providing them with vital work experience. Undergraduate students also saw a steady increase of 13% with more than 36,000 students now pursuing degrees in the U.S.
