Student Recruitment in South America
Student recruitment in South America is more than Brazil and Colombia, although combined they these two power houses constitute more than 60% of all South American outbound mobility (source: Unesco). Countries like Peru (36,000), Ecuador (26,000) and Argentina (10,000 students) send much smaller numbers abroad each year, but their steady growth of recent years makes them interesting new recruitment markets. In most of these countries there are government backed scholarship schemes that fuel outbound mobility.
