Back-to-School Data

To better understand the preferences of post-secondary students, we surveyed 4,812 students in 78 countries who attend over 1,000 unique post-secondary institutions between July 28 and August 27, 2021. We fielded this survey on the Qualtrics survey platform using targeted social media advertising to acquire a convenience sample. We administered the survey in English, French, Spanish, Korean, and Portuguese, and oriented the sampling towards countries where at least one of these languages is dominant. The survey sample has not been weighted. We acknowledge that a survey of this breadth may not accurately indicate country or region-level with great accuracy.
