In 2014,\u00a0over 4 million\u00a0students\u00a0chose to study overseas, therefore 2 million more than back\u00a0in 2000.<\/p>\n<p>First choices for foreign students are <br \/>\n &#8211; USA (740\u00a0482)<br \/>\n &#8211; UK (427\u00a0686)<br \/>\n \u00a0<strong>&#8211; France (271\u00a0399).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In this world of Globe-Trotters, some nationalities are more represented than others. It comes as no surprise that <strong>China<\/strong> is the biggest provider of foreign students : 694\u00a0365 of its citizens are studying overseas. Next comes India, followed by South Korea, Germany and Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>Inside Europe,\u00a0 <strong>Erasmus 2014-2015 statistics<\/strong> show that <strong>spanish<\/strong> students are the first to cross the border, followed by the Germans, still \u00a0inside Europe. The Erasmus programme is also very popular among Italians and French students. These 4 countries rank first both in terms of foreign students providers and destination. <strong>Only one country remains an exception: the UK<\/strong>.\u00a0 Despite being the fourth favourite destination in Europe, behind Germany, France and Spain, <strong>British students show very little haste to cross the Channel<\/strong>.\u00a0Less than 10\u00a0000 of them use Erasmus each year, fewer than the Poles and the Turks.<\/p>\n<p>The number of foreign students in France remains stable (0.9% increase over a year), with a 5.5%\u00a0increase over 5 years. <strong>Students come first and foremost from Maghreb and China<\/strong> : 35 199 Marocco, 21 279 Algeria, 11 573 Tunisia. However according to French government&#8217;s statistics, the number of students originating from Algeria and Tunisia decreased between 2010 and 2014.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary\u00a0some nationalities\u00a0are more and more attracted to\u00a0France :<br \/>\n &#8211;\u00a0 italians (+39.7% between 2010 and 2014)<br \/>\n &#8211; spanish students (+ 25.56%)<br \/>\n &#8211; americans (+19.5%)<br \/>\n &#8211; Ivory Coast students (+31.7%)<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Campus France studies highlight the most cosmopolitan cities in France, based on the number of foreign students they host : Paris comes first (with Cr\u00e9teil and Versailles).
