This a copy of a question in Jobs & Education, sorry for duplication but I wanted to maximise the chance of getting a response.

Can anyone point me towards a source of information on the population figures for university students in different countries? Aside from worldstudent.com that is, which has figures from the late 90s and early 00s, and I need much more current figures than that. But I haven't found a reliable source yet.

The information you require is available from the UNESCO Institute for Statistics.

Start here
http://data.uis.unesco.org/Index.aspx?DataSetCode=EDULIT_DS&;popupcustomise=true&lang=en
and select the first field as 'Enrolment in tertiary education, ICSED 6 and 7 programmes, both sexes (number)'.
(That gives you non-postgraduate students. Use the option for ICSED 8 for postgrads).

Then select the countries you're interested in and the years. (I suggest selecting all years from 2010 onwards because it sometimes takes a few years for data to be collated and submitted). Then click 'View data'.
