Record number of US students apply for UK undergraduate degrees

From Times Higher Education: “Experts had previously suggested that UK institutions might benefit from international students being put off by Donald Trump’s new administration. And analysis suggests campuses are already seeing an influx of applicants from the US itself. Figures from the admissions service Ucas show that 6,680 US students applied to UK courses for 2025-26 by the main deadline at the end of January. This was a 12 per cent increase on the year before, and the most since comparable records began in 2006. It surpasses the previous record of 6,670 set in 2021-22 and is more than double the demand in 2017.”
