This model poses a very real risk of oversimplifying the complexity of measuring ROI in international student recruitment. Our goal here is to provide a tool where each higher education institution is the master of her own outcome. The institution is responsible for the raw data that goes into the tool -- however that institution chooses to do that, consistently over time. Because the model is designed for internal analysis, please resist the temptation to compare your institution with others when using this tool.
