International student enrollment at U.S. universities and colleges rose 11.5 percent in the 2022-23 school year—with California receiving more such students than any other state, according to a new report by the global education nonprofit Institute of International Education.

The increase is the largest single-year gain the U.S. has seen in 40 years and comes after a significant drop due to travel restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
