Looks like it's this same survey[1], which was already reported a while ago in the NYTimes[2], and when you actually look at it, contains this phrase, which adds a little more perspective: > 39% of responding institutions reported a decline in international applications, 35% reported an increase, and 26% reported no change in applicant numbers. Note that it also says the "final" report will be released March 30, so expect to see this story reported again after that.
