My point is that international students may "subsidize" the university, but in practice this should have very little to do with what the university would charge its students (they are not "subsidizing" the domestic students). Implicit in your assumption is that tuition uses cost-based pricing which I find hard to believe. Admittedly this is all conjecture on my part but I don't find that line of reasoning persuasive.
- wcummings 9y agoStudents that pay full freight absolutely subsidize those who don't, and a lot of the people who can afford full tuition are foreign. http://blogs.wgbh.org/on-campus/2014/6/17/international-enrollment/ http://blogs.wgbh.org/on-campus/2014/6/17/international-enro...
