At QS Best Student Cities Ranking 2023, London has emerged as the best city for students who want to study abroad in terms of affordability, student facilities, and university standards among other factors. Seoul and Munich are in second place followed by Zurich and Melbourne in fourth and fifth places.

The highest student city in India is Mumbai in 103 places that scored affordability but struggled with a mixture of students and desires. This was followed by Bengaluru in 114 ranking. Chennai and Delhi have made their entries to this year’s list in 125 and 129, each.

The ranking of the Best Student City QS gives students independent data about various factors that are relevant to their study decisions: affordability, quality of life, university standards, and the views of previous students who have studied in that goal.

QS ranks 140 cities worldwide. The best student city in the Arab region is Dubai, which is ranked 51st globally. Buenos Aires took the top position of Latin America, ranked 23rd in the world.

International students only represent a small portion of the entire student body in India. According to the All India Survey on Higher Education (AISHE) 2018-19, the number of international students registered at the University of India is only 47,427. India is trying to attract 200,000 international students, more than four times the total at this time, at the end of 2023, a goal that might need to be reviewed because it was set before Pandemi Covid-19 Global, which had greatly influenced the mobility of international international students in depth.
