The line chart compares the accumulation of international pupils admitted to postsecondary schooling in Australia, England, and Canada where the data spans over a decade. Additionaly, the pie charts illustrate the distribution of foreign students across six home regions: Asia, Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and others in 2020.
Overall, the global students exhibited relatively similar growth patterns throughout the years. Initially, in 2010, Canada had just 150,000 enrollees, while Australia had 25% more students than Canada, representing 200,000. It is evident that pupils predominantly studied in Britain, reaching 250,000. In 2014, Australia and Great Britain had the same enrollment figures. Despite a comparable trend, a notable difference emerged between 2015 and 2020, during which Australia became the leading destination for further education enrollment, reaching 300,000. In 2015, England and Canada had enrollment figures of 265,000 and 225,000, respectively. By the end of the interval, Australia had more than doubled its initial number, reaching 450,000. There was a significant gap between Australia and the two other countries, with England and Canada just reached below 350,000, showing 325,000 and 300,000, respectively.
Regarding the region of origin, the data showed that most enrollees came from Asia and Europe, accounting for 40% and 25% of the total, respectively. The other home region remained relatively stable below 20%. the Middle East and other countries had the lowest number of learners at 5%, while Latin America had doubled the Middle East rate at 10% precisely.
