SEVIS by the Numbers Provides Comprehensive Data on International Students
SEVIS by the Numbers is a quarterly report using data from the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), which SEVP uses to track and monitor the status and activities of nonimmigrant students and exchange visitors who enter the United States. The report is a snapshot of relevant and useful information including the number of international students in the United States, top places of origin, and student demographics.
