See which countries, institutions and subjects are available in CoreBridge Intelligence. Coverage varies by collection; every figure carries its publisher and reporting year.

  • 81international student source markets, each with its own page
  • 1,800+published measures, defined by each country’s own collections
  • 1990–2026reporting years, earliest to latest

The 43 countries: Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, the United Arab Emirates, and 37 European countries from Poland to Malta, Türkiye among them. Hong Kong, Singapore and South Africa are read at market level and are not in the count. In the Edition’s menu, the Middle East and North Africa sits under Asia. Counted from the Edition’s own data on 29 September 2026.

Fourteen collections

One set of definitions, from a single institution to the world.

Within a system, every institution is read on the same published measures and years. Across systems, the Edition sets side by side only the measures the collections define closely enough to sit in one row, and names what still differs.

By country and collection.

A full edition reads each of a country’s institutions at the depth Australia has today. Peers are read on the measures their own collections publish. Beta marks a tool still being built out.
