主题：The Impact of the Influx of New Foreign Undergraduates on U.S. Higher Education
摘要：Over the past ten years, the United States experienced a dramatic increase in the number of foreign students at undergraduate programs. Using data from the 2001-2013 Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), this paper examines the impact of the influx of new foreign undergraduates on the U.S. higher education sector. To address the endogeneity of the influx of foreign students, I use plausibly exogenous variation created by the foreign demand shock for American undergraduate education induced by Chinese students since 2006 and implement an instrumental variables (IV) strategy. I find that although the crowd-out effect between the enrollment of foreign students and the enrollment of native students is imprecise on average, this crowd-out effect is particularly strong at universities with relatively higher rankings. Admitting more foreign students has little impact on fees in both public and private schools, but it does increase tuition charged by public research universities. The economic gains of enrolling foreign students allow American universities to increase the average amount of institutional grant aid for its accepted students as well as the average salary for its instructional staff. Moreover, focusing on public high schools’ SAT scores in California, I find that there exist negative spillovers from the influx of foreign students on domestic high school students’ math performance.
