Two sides of the same coin: different perspectives on student pathways to higher education.
International students have faced some tough decisions on how to pursue their journey into higher education over the past couple of years. Exam cancellations and limited mobility have impacted their next steps after school. But how have higher education institutions reacted to these changes? According to a recent survey by ISC Research, over 40% of higher education institutions (HEIs) around the world anticipate an increase in international undergraduate entry for the 2021-2022 academic year. 48% of these universities are welcoming international students without traditional grades, using alternative criteria instead.
ISC Research explored the topic in a recently published report based on research conducted with representatives of HEIs across 23 countries, complemented by the views of student career and university guidance counsellors at international schools.
