You will all types of people in every country. Some are good nice people. While some are dumb racists. The latter are very common and rare to find which is a good thing especially if you go to foreign country for education. Usually international students are very much liked by the natives of your host country. I have discussed this in one of my past articles. Here you can read How Foreigners Think About Study Abroad Students.

Many parents and students are worried about how they will be treated while studying abroad. Answer to it is that people really like to see foreigner students coming to their country for education. There are multiple reasons for that. In countries like United States and United Kingdom there are already so many foreigners that you will feel like home. In other countries where foreigners are in big numbers they are treated like guests with respect. Extra care is taken of international students by the people and government of your host country. In this article, I have discussed all these why they would love to have you in their country.

1 - You Make Environment Colorful

When foreigners who belong to different countries, cultures, ethnics, colors and languages gather at one place, they create a very attractive colorful environment. This is one of reasons why people really like it when society has foreigners living there. Seeing people of so many nationalities gathered at one place shows stability and peace in that country. It is also a fun environment to hang out with different and new personalities.

2 - It Strengthens Economy

This is the biggest reason why countries host international students. They attract as many international students as possible and facilitate them in every way. International students are even preferred over their own native students. It really benefits the economy of the country when foreigner students come there. Most of the countries even charge more than double tuition fees from foreigner students. Moreover, all the visa charges you pay them and you earn from your country and spend it in their country. All that makes their developed economies improve even more.

3 - You Make Their Country Popular

The more international students are in a country the more famous and popular that country becomes all around the world. Everyone in your contact back in homeland know where you are and prefers that place over other countries. Countries that host more international students are considered more stable and peaceful which creates a nice image of the country in every part of the world.

At present, United States of America is without a doubt most famous country. Everyone in every part of the world knows this country. Tell me have you ever heard of the country “Vanuatu”? The reason why you know USA is that it has the most foreigners living there and I don’t believe there are any international students in Vanuata.

4 - It Means Better Education System

When universities know they have to host international students, they develop their facilities and education system even more. Study abroad destinations have strict policies about education system and they always keep a check on how the institutes are performing. It maintains a good quality of education. Because of all the special arrangements made for international students, their native students also get benefits. So students really like it when foreigners come to their institute. In addition, the more foreigner students are in a country, the better that country is considered as study abroad destination.

5 - They Get Whole World in Their Country

How do you get whole world in just one country? What if a part of every country comes to live in your country, wouldn’t be good enough. If a person from China comes to live in near you, you will learn a lot about China from him. Likewise, having representative from each country makes people feel like a world tour without leaving hometown. They get an insight of every nation from a very legit source.

They not only enjoy the company of different cultures but also gain a lot of knowledge. By having foreigners around them one learns more than the books. This is one of the reasons why people really like having foreigner students in their country.

6 - More Opportunities For Them

Some people think that foreigners take their opportunities away from them. They come and take jobs and seats in universities while natives are left ignored and jobless. In reality it is totally opposite. First of all, special places are made for foreigners as they pay for it. Moreover, they create more opportunities then to take from the host country by supporting their economy.

When students get to study and spend time with international students, they learn more and enjoy more. They get the opportunity to become friends with someone who is from a different country. It make their social network global. They get friends who will be helpful in future. Only a professional can tell you the real importance of network. On top of it having an international social network can be really beneficial whether it’s the work, business or tourism individual does. In business, one can make the income and trading international with the help of overseas trustworthy friends. These friends are not going to cost anything but only make new ways and opportunities. Then tell me why a person, on right mind, wouldn’t like to have foreigner students in his/ her country.
