The table illustrates the number of students from three different countries studying in the US and Canada in 2002 and 2003.
Overall, it is evident that the majority of students decided to study in the US in both years, while the greatest change in enrollment was recorded in Canada.
In Canada, the number of international students from China and the US were relatively similar, at 5400 and 5000 students, respectively. In 2003, the former experienced a sharp increase to nearly 8000, whereas the latter saw only a marginal increase of 9%. More and more Indians students also chose Canada as their destination, which was evident in a rise of 35%, growing from 2100 to 2835 students in the same period.
Looking at the table in further detail, it is observable that nearly 600,000 students went to America to study in both years, with Indian ones accounting for nearly a third of the population. However, that number witnessed a decline of 9%, resulting in only around 180,000 learners left in 2003. By contrast, Chinese and Canadian students shared a similar growth rate of around 7%, reaching approximately 120,000 and 33,000 students, respectively.
