More than 19,000 non-U.S. citizens who were not permanent residents of the United States worked full time as instructional staff at American colleges in the fall of 2013. Of those, the greatest share worked at four-year public institutions.

Note: Only degree-granting colleges in the United States that are eligible to participate in Title IV federal financial-aid programs, and that have at least 50 full-time instructional staff members, are included in the rankings. Summary figures include all institutions, even those with fewer than 50 such staff members. Instructional staff members are employees who primarily instruct or teach, or who teach in combination with doing research and/or public service. In addition to tenured and tenure-track faculty members, those employees could include adjuncts and some postdoctoral students. Faculty members whose work is solely devoted to research are excluded. Nonresident aliens are people who are not U.S. citizens or nationals and who are in the United States on a visa or temporary basis and who do not have the right to remain indefinitely. Percentages are rounded, but ranks are ordered on the basis of unrounded figures. Questions or comments can be sent to data@chronicle.com.
