Section I INTRODUCTION
During the 2005-2006 academic year, 5,839 international students came to Manitoba to pursue academic studies – 1.3% fewer students than the previous year’s enrolment of 5,914. The estimated total of tuition and academic fees paid by these students exceeded $29M or an increase of 28% from the previous year ($22.8M). If the non-academic spending of these students is included, their total economic impact surpassed $63M. The Government of Manitoba is committed to working with our partners in the educational community to fully develop international education and realize significant educational, socio-cultural and economic benefits. International students contribute to our province in many ways, bringing diverse perspectives to Manitoba's classrooms and communities. Through interaction with international students, Manitobans increase their cross cultural understanding and global awareness- increasing their intercultural competencies and preparing them for participation in the global economy. Increased engagement and experience with international students also enhances Manitoba’s profile and opens doors for future trade and inward investment. When international students return home, they help to raise Manitoba’s profile abroad and become ‘unofficial’ ambassadors of Canada. Upon completion of their studies, some international students choose to remain in Manitoba and contribute their much needed skills and talents to the workforce. International students can be found in Manitoba’s elementary and secondary schools, post-secondary institutions and English/French as an Additional Language programs. This report looks at the numbers of international students in these three sectors during 2005/06, their areas of study, countries of origin and lengths of stay. It also examines the capacity of educational institutions to admit more international students and the economic impact of international students on the province. The survey of the international activities was widely circulated to Manitoba’s educational institutions. Institutions were asked to provide information voluntarily. Some institutions provided partial data and others indicated that certain portions of the survey were not applicable to their international activities. Where no data was provided, the institution was excluded from the corresponding tables and charts. This report complies with the legal requirements set out by the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. This report has been compiled with the assistance of the Manitoba Bureau of Statistics.

(1) Student Living Expenditures are estimated using "Monthly Budget for Single Student Living Allowances in Manitoba in 2005/06" from Human Resources & Social Development Canada (HRSDC), and multiplying this expenditure by the estimated number of months present in Manitoba for students within each sector.
The objective is to estimate the incremental expenditures made in Manitoba by international students. Expenditures are of two types, "Student Living
Expenditures" and "Tuition & Educational Fees". "Total Estimated Manitoba Based Expenditures" is the sum of these.
(2) Tuition & Educational Fees Paid are as reported to the Manitoba International Education Branch of Manitoba Intergovernmental Affairs & Trade. This figure does not include Tuition & Education Fees collected by non-reporting institutions. Actual Tuition & Educational Fees paid would be higher.
(1) Exchange Students are out of scope for the question of international student enrolment targets.(2) Reported Enrolment is presented as a comparison to International Student Enrolment Targets. Institutions that have not provided Target Enrolment are excluded from this comparison, hence the apparent differences between Reported Enrolment and Total International Students presented in Table A.

Section II THE POST SECONDARY SECTOR
UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES
Universities and colleges were asked to provide information about undergraduate and graduate students. Colleges were asked for data on regular program students, short-term students, and contract-training students. Both types of institutions were asked for student head counts and FTEs, or Full Time Equivalents.
The total 2005/06 post-secondary international student enrolment in Manitoba was 3,685. College enrolment accounted for 5.1% or 189 students. University enrolment accounted for 94.9% or 3,496 students, 605 of whom were enrolled in graduate studies. The University of Manitoba alone, accounted for 72.2% of total post-secondary international student enrolment in Manitoba, with the University of Winnipeg enrolling 14.4%.
The section on Potential Capacity looks at the ability of colleges and universities to enroll additional international students. This serves as an indicator for future growth in international education.
Estimating capacity is a complex task based on many variables including program flexibility, types of course taught, availability of qualified teachers and professors, and sufficient physical space and infrastructure.
Capacity is used as an institution-wide term in this context – breakdowns of specific faculties or programs are not examined. The report focuses on institutions’ success in reaching their estimated capacity through medium and long-term measures.
Universities and colleges were asked to provide the cost of tuition, accommodation, and all related fees charged to international students. Some of the information has been averaged and used to calculate approximate revenue for each of the institutions in the section on Student Fees and Economic Impact.
This data, along with estimated student expenditures, was used to assess the amount of money that international students inject into the provincial economy.

Total Post-Secondary Students 3,685
Estimated Total Living Expenditures in Manitoba (3) $25.09 Million Tuition & Educational Fees Paid to Institutions (4) + $19.46 Million
= $44.54 Million Total Estimated Manitoba Based Expenditures
The objective is to estimate the incremental expenditures made in Manitoba by international post-secondary students. Expenditures are of two types, "Living Expenditures" and "Tuition & Educational Fees". "Total Estimated Manitoba Based Expenditures" is the sum of these.
(4) "Tuition & Educational Fees Paid to Institutions" ($19.46 million) is as reported to the Manitoba International Education Branch of Manitoba Intergovernmental Affairs & Trade. Note that this figure does not include tuition and fees for the 137 students enrolled at Red River College.
(3) Total living expenditures in Manitoba is estimated by multiplying "total reported students" (3,685) by their "estimated yearly expenditure" ($6,808).
(2) The monthly student expenditure figure of $851 translates to $6,808 per student year, on the assumption that on average students would reside in Manitoba for eight months to attend post-secondary education in Manitoba.
(1) "Average Student Expenditures per Month" are estimated at $851. The figure is published by Human Resources & Social Development Canada (HRSDC) as the Monthly Budget for Single Student Living Allowances in Manitoba in 2005/06, and includes $350 for shelter, $196 for grocery purchases, $69 for local transportation and $236 for other expenditures.

Section III THE ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY SECTOR*
SCHOOLS AND SCHOOL DIVISIONS
Schools and school divisions were asked to provide information on regular fee-paying students, exchange students, other non-fee paying students, ESL (English as a Second Language) students, and short-term study students.
Throughout this section, there are references to the public and independent school system. These terms are used to describe the education students receive at publicly funded schools/divisions and independent schools that receive public funds. Enrolment is further divided into sections representing Kindergarten to Grade 4, Grades 5-8 and each of Grades 9, 10, 11 and 12.
The section on Potential Capacity looks at the ability of schools/divisions to admit more students than are currently enrolled. This provides an indicator by which to gauge Manitoba’s capacity for future growth in international education.
Estimating capacity is a complex task based on many variables including program flexibility, types of course taught, availability of qualified teachers and professors, and sufficient physical space and infrastructure.
Institutions were asked to assess their potential ability to admit more international students into their programs. This data was then evaluated against their actual international student enrollment to determine their total theoretical capacity and their success in reaching that theoretical capacity.
Schools/Divisions were asked to provide the costs of tuition, accommodation, and all related fees charged to international students. Some of the information has been averaged and used to calculate approximate revenue for each of the institutions in the section on Student Fees and Economic Impact.
This data, along with estimated student expenditures, was used to assess the amount of money that international students inject into the provincial economy.
*In Manitoba, three different groups fall under the designation of Independent schools. These are funded-independent schools, non-funded independent schools and home schooling. For this survey, funded-independent schools were surveyed for their enrolment of international students. Manitoba Education, Citizenship and Youth funds schools based upon guidelines (see http://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/schools/ind/funded_ind.html) for regulations and policies.

Table 7. Total Estimated Manitoba Based Expenditures
Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) Enrolment (1) 589
Average Student Expenditures per Month (2) $851
Estimated Expenditure per FTE Student (3) $8,510
Estimated Total Living Expenditures in Manitoba (4) $5.01 Million
Tuition & Educational Fees Paid to Institutions (5) + $5.03 Million
TOTAL ESTIMATED MANITOBA BASED EXPENDITURES = $10.04 Million
(5) "Tuition & Educational Fees Paid to Institutions" ($5.03 million) is as reported to the Manitoba International Education Branch of Manitoba Intergovernmental Affairs & Trade.
(1) Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) enrolment is calculated for the students attending each institution. The Total FTE international student enrolment in 2005/06, estimated at 589, is shown in Table 2. Note, this estimate excludes international exchange students.
The objective is to estimate the incremental expenditures made in Manitoba by international students. Expenditures are of two types, "Living Expenditures" and "Tuition & Educational Fees". "Total Estimated Manitoba Based Expenditures" is the sum of these.
(4) "Estimated Total Living Expenditures in Manitoba" ($5.01 million) is the estimated FTE students (589) multiplied by the estimated yearly expenditure ($8,510).
(2) "Average Student Expenditures per Month" are estimated by Human Resources & Social Development Canada (HRSDC) as the Monthly Budget for Single Student Living Allowances in Manitoba in 2005/06, and includes $350 for shelter, $196 for grocery purchases, $69 for local transportation and $236 for other expenditures.(3) The above student expenditure figure of $851/month is multiplied by 10, to estimate one student's expenditures for 10 months (i.e., the expenditure level associated with a FTE student).

Section IV THE LANGUAGE SECTOR
ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE SCHOOLS
English as a Second Language (ESL) schools in Manitoba were asked to provide information for all the students enrolled in their programs. This section examines students in ESL programs who are not concurrently enrolled in other post-secondary programs. That is, they are enrolled in ESL programs only. Most of the students at Red River College who are enrolled in ESL courses are also concurrently enrolled in regular academic programs and are thus not reported in this section.
Many students come to Manitoba for the sole purpose of studying English as a Second Language. Many others, however, require ESL training in order to pursue their degree or diploma programs in Manitoba. ESL programs are thus a vital conduit for admitting international students to Manitoba’s educational institutions. Knowing the ability of ESL schools to admit more students provides a key indicator by which to gauge Manitoba’s capacity for growth in the international education sector. This is examined in the tables on “Actual & Targeted International Student Enrolment by Institution”.
Estimating capacity is a complex task based on many variables including program flexibility, types of course taught, availability of qualified teachers and professors, and sufficient physical space and infrastructure.
Institutions were asked to assess their potential ability to admit more international students into their programs. This data was then evaluated against their actual international student enrolment to determine their total theoretical capacity and their success in reaching that theoretical capacity.
ESL schools were asked to provide the costs of tuition, accommodation, and all related fees charged to international ESL students. Some of the information has been averaged and used to calculate approximate revenue for each of the institutions in the section on “Student Fees and Economic Impact”.
This data, along with estimated student expenditures, was used to estimate the amount of money that international students inject into the provincial economy.

Total Weeks of ESL Study (1)
(1) "Total Weeks of ESL Study" is the sum of all weeks for all students. For example, 1 student enrolled for 10 weeks plus 2 students enrolled for 12 weeks would represent 34 Weeks of ESL Study (i.e., 10+12+12=34). In this manner, each institution has a reported "Number of Students" and "Total Weeks of ESL Study".
(2) "Average Enrolment (Weeks)" is the average length of enrolment of international ESL students within each institution (in weeks). The average length of enrolment of international ESL students (for reporting institutions in 2005/06) is 17.9 Weeks, with 1,099 students receiving 19,712 weeks of instruction.

Notes on Charts (following page):
Percent Change
Total Weeks of Enrolment is a function of Total Enrolment and Average Length of Enrolment. Year-over-year changes can therefore result from changes in actual enrolment or duration.
Four of the five reporting institutions had increased average length of enrolment for 2005/06. Although total enrolment declined from 2004/05 to 2005/06, average weeks per student increased from 15.5 to 17.9.
Changes in Average Weeks of Enrolment may reflect changes in how ESL programs are offered by the various institutions, the presence or absence of group enrolment (which can skew results) or changes initiated by international students.
