China saw 495,000 students return from overseas study in 2024, up 79,400 from a year earlier and an increase of 19.1 percent, education authorities said on Thursday, in a sign of an accelerating flow of talent back to the country.
A lot of it stems from the fact that Chinese education system is brutally competitive, and rich parents can’t buy their kids way into university. So, instead, they often just send their kids to prestigious western universities.
Thats pretty cool. I wonder if this implies that overseas universities are much better or if students just want to see the rest of the world.
