Then, I would still push anyways for them to want to approve such.
Even, though: I can say that I've not always been on favorable terms with "International students" myself: That is, when I was actually attending an in-person institution.
(That's a whole story of itself I could tell you about)
I do have an issue with the fact that they also have been taking up more spots in general inside of companies post-graduation, and that makes the market more competitive, especially for those of us who are US Citizens, and live in this country.
I mean: I would, actually myself, consider, and want to consider, going to other countries myself and trying out the opportunities they offer.
However: When it comes to the nations/countries these international students are from, then they aren't open to foreigners the same way that the United States is to foreigners.
I would myself want to attend a foreign institution and/or work in another country, particularly: China. I have been considering this recently as a way to imrpove my chances in my future career path. However, considering the fact that I have learned more about the ways that these countries are not accepting of foreigners, it makes me question why we should, generally, be so open to foreigners inside the United States.
I would be more open and glad about the exchanges, if there was more exchange going from the United States to other countries. However: The issue now I see, one of them now, is the fact that I see many of my fellow countrymen not getting enough exposure to foreign cultures and countries besides those of Europe. I would like to see more Americans reach out to, and travel to countries beyond the limits of Europe, the United States.
Have you ever seriously looked into attending school abroad? I have a hunch that the fact that Americans, in general, don't seek these opportunities would probably make your chances better than you might think.
