According to a study-report published recently, the immigration hotspots of Canada and the US are much preferred by global students, for higher studies purposes, even as during the last year, the volume of global students touched a historic high at the many American colleges and universities. As per the said survey, roughly 10,000 students have got registered with the different private universities across the nation.
Further, for the past 12 years, the USC is believed to have a remarkable figure of students from out-of-the-country. The volume of global students has swelled by Plus 7% by taking, in the process, making the same 820,000 across the many American educational foundations.
A key contribution is reportedly made by the nations of India and China ranking second & first in sending across students to the foreign country. Other top contributors of students to US include Kuwait, Iran, besides Brazil. Reportedly, these nations are responsible for roughly 20%, or one-fifth, of the total worldwide students in the US.
Not to be left behind, every year, Canada sees the influx of over 4000 global students, who enter the nation for doing graduation from its many educational organizations. From 2000 to the present time, the figure of the global students in the nation has increased by a staggering 100% therein.
What the future has in store for global students in these nations!
Several of the said students pursue graduation and later on post graduation in the country. A significant section of them even prefer to gain a doctorate and/or a post doctorate degree. Post concluding their studies fruitfully, they search for an employment opportunity. Afterwards, many of them usher-in their families to the country.
Certain study courses, such as MBA, for instance, remarkably boost their educational credentials and afterwards they become comparatively more qualified and better equipped to search for a job in the flourishing national job market of the Maple Leaf Country, i.e., Canada. In the end, they make efforts and gain the prized permanent residency status which eventually helps them gain the much sought after Canadian citizenship.
Opportunities in abundance
A business degree from a national university of Canada remarkably improves the job prospects of these students. Most of the Canadian provinces & cities have sufficient job-openings even as these cool their heels for the best and the brightest talents to get involved with them.
As hinted elsewhere, several students make certain that they pursue an MBA course in the country in the wake of concluding their Engineering graduation, or even a degree in, say, Biotechnology or Microbiology. The logic: an MBA proffers them an advantage over the other educational credentials.
Why global students prefer Canada, US!
This takes us to the key issue under discussion. Frankly, there are several reasons which inspire the global students to target the US and Canada, for study purposes. To begin with, these nations boast of an amazing cosmopolitan & multi-ethnic population, and so the immigrant-students does not feel like an outsider in these countries. Besides the nations, especially Canada, in view of its aging populace, proffers superb educational facilities and courses to those who pursue studies on its soils. What’s more: post the global students conclude their study-courses; the doors of the well-paying Canadian job market get thrown wide open for them.
Summing-up, Canada and the US enjoy unmatched popularity amongst the worldwide students for more than a few compelling reasons. Not only these foreign destinations have cosmopolitan populations, these also offer top-notch educational facilities and study-courses to their students. The fact that these immigration hotpots also proffer well-paying jobs to many of their students-after the latter are successfully through with their study courses-further boost their appeal in the eyes of the international student community, rightfully so.
