Canada xa xôi xuất hiện một trường đại học trở thành thỏi nam châm thu hút sinh viên Ấn Độ

trường cao đẳng và đại học công lập của đất nước phụ thuộc vào sinh viên quốc tế, đặc biệt là từ Ấn Độ, ngay cả khi căng thẳng hai nước bùng lên

On a college campus in northern Canada, eight hours by car from Toronto, most of the students who fill the classrooms are from a country half a world away: India.

The young men and women stretching on mats in the gymnasium (giãn cơ trên thảm trong phòng tập thể dục) are more likely to be from Punjab or Gujarat, two Indian states, rather than rural (nông thôn) Ontario. Hindi and Punjabi drowned out English in the cafeteria’s lunchtime cacophony.

In the surrounding city of Timmins, the waiters (bồi bàn) at two new Indian restaurants do not ask customers how spicy they want their dishes. A shuttered bar named Gibby’s has been reopened as a Sikh temple, or gurdwara, where students from the school, Northern College, gathered on a recent evening.

Indians make up the largest group by far, accounting for 40 percent of all international students across the country, according to the Canada Bureau for International Education. China ranks second, at 12 percent.

At Northern College, there were 40 international students in 2014 — now it has 6,140. Enrollment got a further boost after Northern, like other remote public colleges, opened a campus by partnering with a private college (cao đẳng tư) in a Toronto suburb in 2015. Today, about one-third of Northern’s foreign students are in Timmins and at three other smaller northern campuses (cơ sở phía bắc), while the rest are on the Toronto campus.

At Northern, the college revoked the admissions of several hundred international students (trường đại học thu hồi tuyển sinh của hàng trăm sinh viên quốc tế) this year after realizing that the city of Timmins lacked housing, Dr. Penner said.
