The University of Calgary is reporting an $11M revenue decrease due to a nearly 9% decline in international student enrolment this Fall. CBC reports that these declines will have a lasting impact, as these students would have remained at the university for several years. UCalgary Students’ Union President Ermia Rezaei-Afsah said that it is difficult for UCalgary to find funding sources to replace the loss of international students. “We really want to see investment from the Government of Alberta into postsecondary education because now we really don’t have many options or levers left,” said Rezaei-Afsah. UCalgary is reportedly considering raising tuition next year.
