China’s Students Struggle With U S College Costs
Globe magazine reports hardship for Chinese students studying in the United States. It profiles Georgetown sophomore Mark who dropped out after failing to pay a $42,000 annual bill, and Minnesota graduate student Elizabeth who funds meals by blood donations and part-time work. About 8,000 Chinese attend U S colleges, with wages around 425 yuan yearly. The article notes rising average annual fees and post cultural revolution pressures pushing students toward extreme budgeting and hunger.
