International Graduate Students

Question

We have a researcher looking for data sources on:"enrollment numbers of international graduate (not undergraduate) students in each province in Canada (preferably over a number of years). "

This report has some background information on the survey used to provide some output data that is available from CANSIM:

http://www.statcan.gc.ca/daily-quotidien/080207/dq080207a-eng.htm

But the data within the CANSIM table does not provide any information on non-resident students. Perhaps some of the variables have not been included in the CANSIM table? Does anyone know of other data sources?
Would a custom table request be able to produce the information?

Answer

These data would be available as a custom tabulation from the Postsecondary Student Information System (PSIS). The base price for this type of tabulation is $150 with the cost increasing for additional variables and years of data.
