The English regulator has written to 23 institutions concerning their 'high levels' of recruitment of Chinese students, to ensure they have 'contingency plans' in case there is a 'sudden drop' in numbers. The Office for Students (OfS) annual report on financial sustainability  finds that university finances generally remain in good shape , but cites the growing risk of an over-reliance on international students. Overseas student fees play an important role in university finances, the report says, but it  cautions that any event that reduces the flow of such students to English providers could have a 'significant impact'.
