Understanding students' motivations for selecting a study destination,
assessing their expectations and examining areas of satisfaction and dissatisfaction empowers international program managers
and advisors.
While informal evaluations
of study abroad and international student experiences are useful, operating solely on the basis of anecdotes or qualitative
information can put you at a disadvantage.
Because
international educators may have limited funds for rigorous research with students, the International
Student Experience Index has been developed to provide comprehensive, benchmarked and cost-efficient
assessments of your students' attitudes and experiences.
Whether your responsibilities are focused on study abroad students, the international students at your institution–or
both–our shared-cost research programs respond to the need for
objective assessments of student attitudes and experiences at a reasonable cost.
