The bar chart delineates the figure for individuals enrolling in universities of a particular European nation over a period of four years starting from 2004.
Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the number of applicants coming from Japan and the US witnessed upward trends, with the US’s increase being most dramatic towards the end of the period. On the contrary, the data for Chinese applicants dropped considerably, while Russia’s figure experienced minor fluctuations throughout the period and increased marginally overall.
In 2004, universities in the given European country were most popular among Chinese students, highlighted by a notable total of 27,000 applicants, followed distantly by the US at around 13,000. Over the following two years, China’s data point dipped substantially, whereas the opposite was the case for the US’s, with both countries’ converging at 18,000 in 2006. Between 2006 and 2008, China and the US’s statistics continued their divergent trajectories, with the former increasing slightly to surpass China and end at 26,000 and the latter plateauing, then falling marginally to finish at a low of about 15,500.
In the first year surveyed, Russian students were least interested in pursuing further studies in the European country in question with just 2,500 candidates, which was nearly nearly half of Japan’s figure (7,000). From 2004 to 2008, Russia’s number was erratic, reaching a low of 2,000 in 2005 and a high of 3,000 at the end of the period, while Japan’s grew gradually to finish at exactly 10,000.
