Recent findings from the ApplyBoard Student Pulse Survey reveal Canada’s continued dominance as the premier destination for international education. With an overwhelming 94% of survey participants expressing interest in studying in Canada, the country outperforms all other destinations. This preference stems from Canada’s compelling combination of quality education, cultural diversity, and robust post-graduation opportunities, including attractive immigration pathways through programs like the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP). Canada’s welcoming stance towards international students remains a key differentiator despite new visa regulations and housing concerns.
