KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 24 -- ApplyBoard, the EdTech platform revolutionising the international student journey, has launched its first annual trends report on the future of international education.
To help shape recruitment plans and improve global access to education worldwide, ApplyBoard gathered data to uncover the latest trends in sector recovery, key factors motivating student decision-making, emerging markets for student recruitment, and predictions for the next decade.
The report is designed to inform and guide international students, recruitment partners and higher education institutions, according to a statement.
“As we head into 2022, we’re seeing lots of excitement and pent-up demand from international students eager to study abroad,” said Chief Marketing Officer and Co-Founder of ApplyBoard, Meti Basiri.
“The pandemic has led to shifting interests among international students who are paying closer attention to lower tuition prices, access to post-graduation work opportunities, and in-person learning opportunities.”
Notable findings from the report include: according to data from the ApplyBoard Platform, student application volumes are booming across the world.
From March to October 2021, UK student applications on the ApplyBoard Platform rose by more than 300 per cent, Canadian applications grew by over 200 per cent, and US applications spiked by 750 per cent compared to the same period in 2020.
As we move past the pandemic, international students are increasingly looking for lower tuition prices and access to post-graduation work opportunities. They are also considering alternative destination markets.
The findings also reveal that major players India and China will remain large source markets for the future of recruitment. But economic and demographic shifts point to a number of smaller markets primed to capture growing shares of the international student market.
ApplyBoard has assisted more than 250,000 students with their educational journeys. During the pandemic, ApplyBoard helped transform the international education recruitment and application processes through its intuitive digital platform.
