International Students Are Still Determined To Study In Canada Despite Coronavirus Pandemic


A new survey shows that most of the international students are still determined to study abroad despite all the things that are being caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Aspiring international students said that the coronavirus pandemic is not going to stop them from pursuing their education in a different country.
Not only that, the survey also found out that  most of the international students prefer face to face study experience.
The survey that was conducted by International Educations Specialists working for the IDP Connect, the B2B division of IDP Education, also found out that very few preferred online learning.
69 percent of the 6,900 international student applications surveyed intend to commence their studies as planned.
Only 5 percent said that they would no longer continue studying.


The participants of the study were from India, China, Bangladesh, and other countries in Asia.
All the participants were interested in pursuing their studies in Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, United States, and New Zealand.
The majority of those students said that they prefer to do their studies face to face.
The main reason behind is that the online classes option lacks the international exposure, which most of the students are wanting to gain.
Simon Emmett, the CEO of IDP Connect, said that 54 percent of the participants are willing to defer their studies up to 12 months or less before looking at other options.
During a media release, Simon said:
Thirty-one percent of respondents stated they would be willing to start their course online and move to face-to-face learning at a later date, but by far the greatest preference was to defer to January 2021 if this meant face-to-face learning would be possible.
Based on the results, IDP recommended that post-secondary institutions should provide clarity on how and when face-to-face teaching will resume.
They are also going to prepare for large cohorts of students that are commencing face to face studies from January to May 2021.
Australia and Canada was the preferred destination countries.
