AEI student enrolment data are derived from the Provider Registration and International Students Management System (PRISMS) database and count enrolments by students studying in Australia on a student visa. The data includes commencements, finishes and year-to-date counts. It is broken down by nationality, sector, state/territory, field of study and level of study.

Changes to the monthly data
AEI has made some changes to AEI international student enrolment data to enhance the usefulness of the data to the sector.
In response to industry feedback, the more detailed Field of Education was introduced in 2008. The Broad Field of Study was kept in the data set for 2008 for legacy reporting purposes. In 2009 the Broad Field of Study has been removed.
