Around 380,000 foreign students from nearly 200 countries studied in China in 2024/25, up 96% from the 2021 low.
Official figures reported by ICEF Monitor in July 2026 show that roughly 380,000 international students from nearly 200 countries were studying in China in the 2024/25 academic year. That is still below the pre-pandemic level of nearly 500,000, but 96% above the 2021 low of 255,700. China reopened its borders in January 2023.
54% of these students were enrolled in degree programmes, and 35% of degree-seekers were postgraduates. Engineering accounted for 28% of foreign students. By region, 61% came from Asia, around 16% from Africa and around 16% from Europe.
China's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030) lists strengthening the "Study in China" brand among its priorities, which points to more programmes and scholarship opportunities for international students in the coming years.
