International student mobility has become an increasingly important feature of higher education systems and labour markets. Decisions about where to study, and whether to stay after graduation, are shaped by a combination of factors, including costs, financial support, study opportunities and pathways into employment. This report examines the factors influencing the attraction and retention of international students across OECD countries, drawing on comparative evidence on tuition fees, living costs, scholarships, student housing, opportunities to work during and after study, and family-related policies. It explores how these factors shape access to international education, student experiences and countries’ ability to retain international graduates, providing a comprehensive overview of the policy environments shaping international student mobility.
