The graphs below show the enrolments of overseas students and local students in Australian universities over a ten year period.

The Line graphs illustrate the

number

of

students

enrolled, international and local in Australian Universities from 2001 to 2010 on the basis of totals and commencing.

Overall

, the

number

of enrollments of local

students

was much higher than overseas

students

.

However

, the commencing rates for both types of

students

were less than the total

number

of enrollments. In the graph, it can be noticed that in 2001, 20000 foreign

students

applied to Australian Universities.

In contrast

, commencing numbers were slightly lower(i.earound 17000) than the total applied for all the years.

Also

, it can be seen that every three years there is a 20000 increase in the

number

of international

students

. In the case of commencing numbers, they were always less than

students

enrolled in each respective year, and quite interestingly about half of the

students

enrolled. Coming to local

students

, it can be seen that commencing rates were always lower than the total enrolments and remained stable at 200000 with some fluctuations.

However

, the total

number

of applications was 400000 in 2001 and it increased rapidly to 600000 until 2007
