Zong was commenting ahead of the China Education Expo 2013, scheduled from Nov. 2 to 3. It will see more than 600 universities and educational institutes from 42 countries and regions take part, according to the association.

According to Zong, the large-scale event indicates a growing number of Chinese people choosing to study overseas, with their destinations remaining diversified.

At the event, representatives will provide consultations for Chinese visitors in addition to Q&A sessions and lectures held by various embassies and institutes.

Nearly 200 foreign universities will conduct one-to-one interviews with applicants and review their documents at the expo, Zong added.
