English universities see first fall in foreign students since 1985: The number of overseas students at English universities has fallen for the first time in nearly 30 years as students choose the United States and Australia instead, due to tougher visa rules and higher fees.Numbers fell to 307,205 in 2012 from 311,800 in 2011, the first drop in 29 years, analysis by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) showed, despite foreign student numbers rising in other countries.
