Research shows 10 students arriving from outside EU will generate £1m of net economic impact during studies
One year’s intake of international students at British universities generates economic activity worth £390 for each person in the UK each year, rising to more than £700 for every inhabitant of London, according to a study published today.
Overall, 272,000 students from outside the UK who began university courses in 2018-19 would generate close to £26bn in net economic activity once the costs of teaching support and their use of public services had been accounted for.
