Solano College to Recruit Higher-Paying International Students - Erica Perez, NBC Bay Area

Solano College will pay a consultant more than $100,000 over two years to recruit international students from Asia – at a time when the community colleges have undergone severe budget cuts and many in-state students are struggling to get the classes they need. Solano College Superintendent-President Jowel Laguerre says the move will bring in additional revenues that will eventually help support the college’s bottom line. International students pay about $197 more per unit than local students at Solano. http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/Solano_College_to_recruit_higher-paying_international_students-180350341.html
