How the 'Trump Effect' Is Driving Foreign Students Away From U.S. B-Schools

Just as important, his wife will be able to work as soon as they move to Toronto this summer, and they'll be able to stick around for three years after he graduates. "Of course you want to be at Stanford or Columbia, but you have to place your bets," says Paolucci, 31. "Top talent is going to go where it's welcome."

And two-thirds of 86 U.S. MBA programs queried this spring have received fewer international applications this year than last, the GMAC says. Tim Mescon, a vice president at AACSB International, a B-school accrediting group, attributes it to the “Trump effect.” With increasing concern over the president’s travel ban, anti-immigration rhetoric, and proposals to tighten visa rules, “students and their families begin to look for alternatives,” he says. “This is a very dangerous scenario for higher education in the U.S.”

The most prestigious of the 700-plus American B-schools are unlikely to be significantly affected, but lower-ranked institutions could suffer, says Chioma Isiadinso, a former admissions officer at Harvard Business School, who runs an MBA admissions consulting company called Expartus. Many lesser-known schools are highly dependent on tuition from international students, she says, and the prospect of a decline in their numbers “is keeping deans and admissions directors up at night.”
