Dan and Riyanti describe various ways in which students in Japanese universities are suffering from the impacts of the current pandemic. The article explains that one of the problems faced by international students because of the pandemic is lack of access to equipment, technologies, and resources for studies especially those who returned home after the pandemic. The other impact of COVID-19 on foreign students is the lack of income sources which has become a growing concern. This is attributed to the fact that various businesses were asked to cease operations which prompted many students both local and international to lose their source of income. This article provides good and sufficient knowledge and information on how students in foreign nations are surviving the pandemic with the limited amount of scholarship they receive and the effect of uncertain times to come because of the coronavirus outbreak across the globe that has disrupted many activities and interfered with the economy.

David talks about the effect drop in enrollment of international students would have in the United States. One of the reasons why the student enrollment is likely to fall is because the United States has been one of the highest hit economies and social structures by the pandemic. A drop in the number of students will lead to higher tuition which is normally paid by international students which provide extra funds to subsidize the enrollment of other students. The article gives an explanation of how international student fees help reduce costs of the government budget and funding. Budget cuts that have been brought by the coronavirus will lead to budget cuts thus forcing universities and colleges to raise tuition fees which will affect many students especially those that are depending on state scholarships. This article is a good source because it gives ways in which international students already enrolled in abroad universities will face financial complications once studies or learning resumes.
Huelsman, Mark. (2020). Coronavirus could cause a long term higher education crisis. Inside Higher Ed.
The author reflects on how budget cuts and failure to address student basic needs make higher education very vulnerable. This according to the article is the real danger that will affect universities and higher learning. Huelsman explains that one of the effects of COVID-19 will be on state budgets especially uncertainty in domestic economics. Slow economic growth is not a good sign for colleges and universities as well as community colleges. The article explains how colleges will suffer because most resources are being pulled away from higher education towards the public health sector so as to curb the pandemic. These issues will not only affect local students but international students as well considering that most resources today are being reflected towards catering for coronavirus outbreak. Lack of basic safety nets for students will force most of them to drop out or accumulate debts that they might not be able to pay. The paper is a clear example of how recess of the economy will impact student lives.
“Learning remotely when schools close: How well are students and schools prepared? Insights from PISA” (2020). OECD.

https://read.oecd-ilibrary.org/view/?ref=127_127063-iiwm328658&title=Learning-remotely-when-schools-close

The document by OECD explains how the program for international student assessment (PISA) is not ready for the digital migration in teaching students online through digital platforms. The study by the OECD shows that quite a number of students do not have access to a quiet place of studying especially those from a poor background in countries like Korea and Indonesia. Access to a computer for schoolwork is also a challenge for students according to PISA and the internet is also a problem that concludes the fact that most students have little to no access to the matter of digital learning which the current pandemic is pushing for in the education sector. The document by OECD also gives an accounting of how well teachers have been prepared to teach and also learn from digital platforms. This article is useful in understanding some of the problems that students are facing during this pandemic in order to be at the same level as their peers in learning institutions.

Mercado, Simon. (2020). International Student Mobility and the Impact of the Pandemic. AACSB International.

The author reflects on the effects of the pandemic on student migration and movement across the world. Mercado gives an account of how universities in top countries lost many students during the first semester because of the pandemic. This fallout will lead to cut reductions and the need for emergency funding of universities. The article gives demonstrates how international education will be affected and how universities will suffer from this fallout. An example is the Universities U.K which gave out an approximation of over $8.57 billion drop income which is the revenue accrued from tuition fees paid by international students. The author gives an explanation of why the mobility of students after the pandemic is likely to continue and one of the reasons is the worry students have about their health when they move to other countries. This article is a good start of explaining how studies and learning have been affected by the pandemic and what plans does the pandemic hold for international students.

Sahu describes the challenges being faced by various students and academic staff globally. The author explains the problems that international students that were not able to travel back to their homelands are facing. The article gives an example of food and a place to stay is a challenge for both the university and non-national students. There is also the effect of social distancing which forces students to stay alone thus many face mental problems because of social cut from society. The delay of exams also forces financial problems for these students. Sahu gives clear and concise ways in which the current pandemic is causing financial and mental problems for international students and their university administrations.
Stephanie Hall. (2020). A Global View of the Pandemic’s Effect on Higher Education. The Century Foundation. https://tcf.org/content/commentary/global-view-pandemics-effect-higher-education/?session=
Stephanie Hall talks of how higher education will be affected after the coronavirus pandemic ends. Most universities abroad and local depend on international students to pay tuition fees and other payments which the university uses as revenue for the expenses in the university. After the pandemic tuition fees might go higher to retain the normal functioning of universities but one thing is for certain things in higher education learning will change when lockdowns are lifted. The author gives an example of China whose universities get some funding from the government and thus might be able to weather down the pandemic better than other countries. The article explains that most Universities in the United States are likely to fall out on the number of foreign students whose fees help boost their revenue. The paper is a good source as it gives the possible outcomes of three countries that have most international students and how the pandemic will affect their revenues once learning resumes.

The article explains the great problems faced by African students who traveled home after novel coronavirus was declared a global threat. The authors explain how African students have had their studies interrupted after the ban on China the epicenter of the virus was enacted. Online delivery of education for students whose study abroad as well as local students in Africa is proving to be a real-time hard task as the authors explain that the students face poor connectivity, exorbitant costs, frequent power loss and only a few have access to the internet. The article explains how the economy of the African plate is likely to affect higher education considering that the continent harbors most several countries that are still lagging economically. The article is a great source of information as it explains the different circumstances faced by international and local students in terms of accessing higher education during this pandemic.
