When IIE started to report the census on international students at colleges or universities in the United States in 1948/49, only 25,464 international students were reported. In 2008/09, the number was 671,616, which was itself an 8% increase from the previous year. As for the trends by sending regions, 62% of international students were from Asia in 2008/09, though it was 26% in 1948/49; this outnumbered the modest increase of students from Europe and Latin America during the period. Recently, graduate international students outnumbered undergraduate international students.

In Latin America, international rivalry over aviation followed World War I. In its early form, it consisted of a commercial scramble among several Western European nations and the United States to sell airplanes and aviation products and to establish airlines in Latin America. Somewhat later, expanding European aviation activities posed an implicit threat to the Panama Canal.Before World War I, certain aerophiles had sought to advance the airplane as the panacea for the transportation problem in Latin America. The aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont of Brazil and the Aero Club of America, an influential private United States association, were in the van. In 1916, efforts by these enthusiasts led to the formation of the Pan American Aviation Federation, which they envisioned as the means of promoting and publicizing aviation throughout the Western Hemisphere.
