CGPS conducts research to better understand the overall experience of international students in an effort to improve services in various university settings. Data from the International Student Barometer (ISB) Survey has been collected and analyzed for 91Ô­´´ multiple times since 2017. The ISB is considered the most widely-used benchmarking tool for tracking the international student experience globally.

We're pleased to share that out of 137 participating institutions and 122,975 responses worldwide in 2023-2024, 91Ô­´´ was ranked #1 overall in visa support services, arrival support, and multiple critical aspects of learning. We also ranked in the top 10 in several other categories, similar to findings in theÌý.Ìý

Impact & Comprehensive Data

These data sets, developed by CGPS, are also reported to the Institute of International Education (IIE) Open Doors Report each year. CGPS programs and services implemented in support of the 91Ô­´´â€™s Global 360 Strategy are described in the annual CGPS impact Impact Report. Comprehensive historical data on international students and scholars can be found in prior year reports.
