Immigration of International Students to the EU : European Migration NetworkStudy 2012

This Synthesis Report presents the findings of the main EMN Study for 2012 on “Immigration of International Students to the EU.” The aim of the study is to provide an overview of the immigration policies that are being implemented by (Member) States regarding international students from third countries, with a view to informing policymakers and practitioners in respect of actively attracting international students into the EU for the purposes of study, and preventing misuse of international student routes to migration. The EMN Conference 2012, organised by CY EMN NCP, within the framework of the Cyprus Presidency of the EU Council, consolidated the work undertaken by the EMN on this theme by directly informing the development of proposals amending the Students and Researchers Directives and supporting the policymaking process in the field of international students and immigration.
