Diversity makes our graduate education experience rich, and with the release of the 2011/2012 international student census, we are proud to study with students from all over the map! This academic year, a total of 588 new and returning international graduate students enrolled at UCSB, and the total census, which includes undergraduates and Education Abroad Program (EAP) students, brings us to 1,233! Overall, that is a 12% increase over last year, and if you just consider the new international students, we are up 37% when compared with new international students last year.
Dr. Mary Jacob, Director of the Office of International Students and Scholars, informs us that international students make up 1% of our undergraduate population and 18% of our graduate population. She also shared a spreadsheet of counts with the GradPost. Check out the maps below and click the markers to see how many of our international students come from each country. At UCSB, we are the world!
