Universities are grappling with a reduction in grant funding and rising costs, prompting them to increasingly rely on income from international students to subsidize their teaching and research activities. Despite an average 12% annual increase in international fee income since 2017–18, financial pressures persist.
The economic contribution of international students has grown to approximately £42 billion (about $52.3 billion) in 2021-22, up from £31.3 billion ($38.98 billion) in 2018-19, according to new figures.
