Abstract	New England faces a concerning dip in its higher education enrollment, due in significant part to declines in the region's birth and high school graduation rates that are both projected to continue through 2029. Despite these trends, New England's postsecondary institutions continue to attract a large number of international students to the region, according to the 2018 Open Doors report released by the nonprofit Institute of International Education (IIE) and the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA). This article summarizes the findings from the report and the impact international students have on higher education in New England. Despite the economic and cultural value foreign students add to college campuses and the workforce, New England's strong international enrollment figures may be in jeopardy in 2019. What can be expected for 2019 is presented. Economic impact by state is summarized: (1) Connecticut; (2) Maine; (3) Massachusetts; (4) New Hampshire; (5) Rhode Island; and (6) Vermont. (ERIC).
