Recruitment intelligence

Built on Global Student Flows data and student perceptions from the QS International Student Survey, you can find new markets, understand student motivations, and optimise campaigns.

Intensifying competition requires world-class data

Competition for international students is intensifying. The QS Student Recruitment dataset combines two unique sources.

Global Student Flows – forecasting mobility across 80+ sending and receiving markets to 2030.

International Student Survey – our annual survey of 100,000 prospective students captures their goals, values, and decision drivers.

Together they give you the evidence to act early, refine messaging, and allocate resources where demand and fit are strongest.
