As above, “quota” is a word that top colleges will not use, yet if the percentage of international students is ~10%, it’s safe to assume that the percentage will not vary much going forward.

As for how it breaks out by country, if your potential college lists the breakout of their student body, you can get a rough estimation of how many will be accepted from a particular country. At Harvard, for example, there are 32 undergraduate Australians, but when you dig deeper, there are at least 12 rowers, netting down to 20 non-recruits, or roughly 5 per year.
