The number of college graduates in Canada has increased by over 100K since 2000 (86% growth), with an increase of nearly 8% from 2018 to 2019. Canada is among the top choices for international students, with international students comprising 29% of its higher education population in 2022. The increase in education attainment among young adults, the growth of international students, and the expansion of the Canadian higher education system have driven the increase in Canadian graduates.
