Overall, the number of students spoke Spanish only increased significantly over the period surveyed; whereas the figure for university students who did not speak any languages in addition to English saw a sharp decline. Units are measured in percentages.
The percentage of monolingual students decreased by half, from 20% to 10% in 2010; however, the figure for students speaking three languages including English rose by 5% to 15%.
Meanwhile, the figure for students speaking German remained unchanged, at only 10% during the period shown; whereas that of students who spoke French saw a 5% decrease. The proportion of university students used Spanish and another language as the second language increased significantly, which the former contributed to 35% and the latter accounted for one-fifth of the total in 2010.
