As the global economy edges closer to recession, competition for international talent will be more critical than ever before. The theme of the ApplyBoard trends report, released on 14 November 2022, is obvious from its title, A New Era of Student Choice Begins. The report uses the latest industry data to identify future student trends and build transparency about student needs.
Whether it is breaking down work barriers for international students or investing in visa-processing improvements, popular study abroad destinations such as the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States and Australia are making important moves to distinguish themselves from their competition. If study destination countries like the UK hope to maintain a competitive advantage, it will be critical that they continue to build and offer innovative, student-friendly policies over the next couple of years.
