  student numbers reached record highs during the
  2019/20 academic year, according to the latest
  statistics from the UK's Higher Education
  Statistics Agency (HESA), which includes the
  first five months of the COVID-19 epidemic.
  Moreover, the overall number of international
  students in the United Kingdom has crossed
  500,000 for the first time, reaching 556,625.

  European Union accounted for a large portion of
  those gains. In 2019/20, non-EU enrolments

  increase in non-EU students year over year,
  compared to basically flat volumes of EU students
  (.83 percent year over year). Furthermore, that
  contrast between EU and non-EU statistics is
  considerably sharper when it comes to first-year
  enrolments. As HESA explains, The number of
  first-year students from EU nations declined by 2
  percent while the number from non-EU countries
