This survey was a follow up to earlier surveys, conducted in 2009, 2015, and 2016. In 2009, 24 institutions responded, representing a total of approximately 13,000 foreign students. In 2015, 35 institutions responded, representing approximately 10,100 international students. In 2016, 31 institutions responded, representing a total of nearly 12,200 students. The current survey tallied responses from 27 of Hawaii’s educational institutions, representing approximately 10,800 international students. Caution should be used when comparing the surveys due to the different mix of schools, students, and schools’ reporting in these surveys. The total direct economic impact of international students for the State of Hawaii in the 2017 survey was an estimated $225.3 million.
