EduBoston sudden closure - international students

The sudden closure of EduBoston reminds us of the issues with international student enrollment, particularly from China. Shrinking demographics, rising tuition, changing educational preferences for secular schools, and improving public/charter options have contributed to a decrease in domestic enrollment. Rather than significantly overhauling business models, many schools have opted for the quick fix of importing Chinese students. This tuition-driven business decision has created challenges for schools that are often overlooked. Of primary importance is the well being of students who are often forgotten about in these “transactions”. 

In addition to working with international students, we advise schools on best practices with their international student practices
