The council survey of U.S. institutions, which fielded more than 400,000 applications in all, showed growth of applications from China along with the Middle East and Turkey, up 16% and 20% from 2008, respectively. But applications from India and South Korea fell 9% and 7%, respectively.
Looks like the problems with getting jobs and H1B visas, the relatively better economy is affecting applications. Could it also be related to this other article on WSJ?

Hi saket,
I have a query regarding financial support form which needs to be filled for admission.
What kind of impact this form can have on my appln ?
If I declare that I cannot attend the school without financial aid, whether it is good/bad ?
If one gets RA/TA, then this financial doc has less importance?
Any extra info regarding this, will be helpful.
I think the sudden drop has something to do with the recession we are facing nowadays.
