It's interesting - when OMSCS started, there was so much speculation that it would be flooded with overseas students who would use it to get a cheap US degree that would ultimately help them to migrate.
Instead, OMSCS actually has a far, far higher proportion of American students than GATech's on-campus MSCS program...
- jordanb 9y agoIf you're an international student, a physical presence in the US is one of the things you're buying with your grad school tuition. Conversely American grad school attendees are mostly career switchers who already have an established life in a place that's probably not Atlanta.
