Start with the sample
Emeritus surveyed 1,010 Indians aged 15–28 in March 2026, spanning pre-college, educational transition and early career. The PIE News reported the findings and checked the methodology on 22 October. This is neither a global nor a Taiwanese sample and does not track subsequent enrolments.
The percentages use different denominators
The report records overseas interest among 71% of respondents. Of those considering study abroad, 48% say interest has fallen over a year. Among those reporting decline, cited factors include rising costs (37%), visa/immigration policies (26%) and safety/political uncertainty (24%). Separately, 68% of the full sample say they are likely or very likely to study an international university programme in India. These remain intentions.
Borrow the questions, not the percentages
Editorial guidance: compare awarding bodies, recognition, placements, total costs and observed outcomes across overseas, local and transnational options. Emeritus operates international education services, a commercial context readers should consider. The campus image is archival, not survey footage.
