Notes

Instagram stands out as the predominant choice for undergraduates in Europe, with nearly 60% using it as their primary source for university-related information, particularly about programs. However, as education levels advance, the reliance on Instagram diminishes, while Postgraduates and Ph.D. students show more preference towards LinkedIn. The latter is seen as a more valuable source due to its strong connection to employment prospects.
