Over the past five years, we have had the privilege of witnessing the increasing pace of interest and growth in China as a destination. More people than ever are learning Chinese, visiting China for tourism or business, and studying in China.
The Chinese government has been making concentrated efforts to improve the quality of education in the country and provide nancial support to foreign students.
Whilst Student.com does not currently list accommodation in mainland China, this is a student corridor we predict will increase in importance as student mobility patterns change, grow and adapt. We are excited about the increasing lure of China as a destination for international students.
Currently, most Chinese student accommodation is on campus; however, opportunities exist for more purpose-built student accommodation in China, as GSA’s recent entry into the market demonstrates.

Boundless: Engaging International Students Virtually Throughout the Admission...Marty Bennett
This slide deck is a summary of the 4 NAFSA regional presentations I did this October-November with Utah State, Sam Houston State, Miami of Ohio, and University of Michigan-Flint. The presentations focused on the results of the 3rd International E-Expectations Report, and how colleges and universities can apply those student behavior trends to their virtual recruitment strategies.
Prevailing Trends: How to Engage International Students in AdmissionsMarty Bennett
Hundreds of universities are competing to recruit international students. Yet there’s little known about what drives the decisions of these students. In this session, attendees will gain insights gleaned from three consecutive years of research on the motivations of these students, and will hear firsthand from universities successfully engaging online with students throughout the admissions cycle.
Assuming most or all of you have a college degree or two and that your degree was the second or third biggest purchase of your life…
Was your degree a good value? Do you feel like you got what you paid for? Anyone want a refund???
Are you still deriving benefits from the degree – or has the dividends shrunk over time?
Do any of you wish you had shopped around more before attending the institution? What additional questions would you have asked?
This presentation examines the rise of students as informed consumers.

Immediacy, Engagement, and Immersion: Critical Pedagogy and the Study Abroad ...CIEE
Intentional, critically informed pedagogies are a means of developing and shaping the kinds of transformative experiences students should have. While much of the work in the field of international education emphasizes formal assessments, we’ll focus on critical pedagogy and how to best shape experiences that promote experiential learning, immediacy, engagement, and immersion that is both self-reflexive and respectful. We’ll consider approaches and methodologies that can be used for specific study abroad programs and the ways in which an ethos of deeply intercultural and experiential learning can inform campus and curriculum internationalization efforts.

Who goes to school online? Why? What do they want and need? Answering these questions could help you grow your online programs by better targeting your marketing and increasing conversions. This session will present key findings from a new national report, conducted by Aslanian Market Research and The Learning House, Inc.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
What today’s “typical” online college students look like, and the major ways in which they are both different and similar to traditional students
What are the most powerful marketing messages to reach this audience
What are the most popular online subject areas and degree programs
CIEE and Johnson and Wales University have collaborated for the past two years to develop a freshman study abroad program called "Expanding the Freshman Experience." This session will focus on how they created best practices related to transitioning from the more traditional faculty-led program to a collaborative, non-faculty-led program that serves an underrepresented population. Attendees will learn how to design a program that meets the unique needs of freshman students and encourage them to safely leave their comfort zone. Special consideration during this session is given to the developmental phase of emerging adulthood in the design of program components, overall tone, and expectations.

Is Transnational Education the Future of Internationalisation for Higher Educ...University of Limerick
The UK has been the main exporting country for transnational education (TNE) – that is, for providing higher education to foreign students who study wholly in their own country. In the latest data (2020/21), UK universities reported 488,095 TNE enrolments, up 13% on 2019/20. This compares with 605,130 for international students studying in the UK.
Post-Covid, there is growing interest in New Zealand entering the global TNE market. There are several reasons for this interest:
- Covid-19 and growing geo-political tensions have blunted the appetite for conventional export education (studying overseas) in key source markets, notably China
- While global enrolments in higher education have soared to reach 235.3m by 2020, only 6.1m (2.4%) are internationally mobile, a percentage which has not changed since 1980
- Export education is increasingly seen as exploitative and environmentally unsustainable. TNE, in contrast, reduces the carbon footprint of international education and typically involves building deep partnerships between exporting HEIs and the host countries.
This presentation considers what New Zealand universities can learn from past and present global TNE development, and reflects on where Aotearoa’s approach may differ from the UK’s. It examines the need for stringent Quality Assurance processes to ensure students entering TNE pathways are set up for success.

Higher Education
Out of the 33.86 million higher education students in China, it is estimated that over half of
them need accommodation. Most of that is currently provided on-campus, which offers room for
opportunity in the private sector.
Due to the burgeoning middle class, as well as the rise in Chinese students experiencing high
levels of quality when travelling and studying overseas, the expectations of students and their
families are rising.
Moreover, with the rise of Sino-Foreign university partnerships, it is increasingly important
for education brands to ensure that the quality standards in China match those of the home
institution - both in terms of the education itself and the student experience, of which
accommodation plays a key role.

34. Projected 10-20 Million Students in China Need
Accommodation
Source: Confucius Institute Headquarters (Hanban)
“Over the next five to ten years, we will see the
accommodation sector develop and grow in China. Both
domestic and foreign Universities will demand better quality
standards, together with partners like GSA.
This is a multi-billion dollar industry, and we project that over
10million students in China study away from home. We will
likely continue to see accommodation expectations and
standards rise, particularly in Tier 1 cities and locations with a
concentration of international students.
Perhaps as a sign of what is to come, Tsinghua University’s
Beijing campus has just opened a brand new 200,000
square foot residential college under a US$450 million
project which is part of the Schwarzman Scholars program.
GSA has partnered with the Schwarzman Education
Foundation to deliver a world class cohesive living and
learning environment for global leaders of the future.”

36. As the third largest destination for international students worldwide, China
has become a powerful force in the international education landscape.
Compared to other top host countries, China has enjoyed the highest (10%)
compound annual growth rate from 2006 to 2015.
As its government continues to invest in improving the quality of the
education system and its universities maintain their rise in global rankings, we
expect China to attract students in greater numbers and diversity. With this
ongoing rise in international students, China’s accommodation industry is rife
with opportunity for growth in both capacity and quality standards.
