| 1 Entry rates excluding foreign-born students correspond to the entry rate when noncitizens enrolled in a host country are excluded. | ||||||||||||||
| 2 Tertiary-type A data includes tertiary-type B data. | ||||||||||||||
| NOTE: Tertiary-type B education refers to vocational higher education. Tertiary-type A education refers to academic higher education below the doctoral level. Net entry rates represent the proportion of persons of a synthetic age cohort who enter a certain level of tertiary education at one point during their lives. The net entry rate is defined as the sum of net entry rates for single ages. Mismatches between the coverage of the population data and the new entrants data mean that the entry rates for those countries that are net exporters of students may be underestimated and those that are net importers may be overestimated. The entry rates excluding foreign-born students seek to compensate for that. See Annex 3 of Education at a Glance: OECD Indicators 2009 for more detailed notes by country. Apparent differences may not be statistically significant. | ||||||||||||||
