Are International Students a Good Indicator of Quality?

From University World News

"Tens of thousands of foreign students with invalid language test scores have been exposed in a groundbreaking investigation in Britain, while 57 private further education colleges have been stripped of their licences. Three universities have been prohibited from sponsoring new international students pending further investigations, and some 750 bogus colleges have been removed from the list of those entitled to bring foreign students to Britain."

The three universities are West London, Bedfordshire and Glyndwr. 

The proportion of students who are international accounts for 5 % of the total weighting of the QS World University Rankings and 2.5 % of Times Higher Education's.
