> In my MS it was about 65% Indian BS students and 35% local students

I can top that. When I was doing an MS in CS at UT Arlington between 2005 and 2008, I was one of two US citizens in the entire program.

Friend was in USF. Class composed entirely of Indians, no exceptions. Not a single US citizen in it.

Do you have any estimates for what countries or regions the other students in the program were from?

LOL. Almost all of them were from India. There were a handful (less than a dozen) from China, but in more than one case I was taking a course with about 35 other students where I was the only non-Indian in the room, including the instructor.
