Abstract: Typical university impact studies in Slovak Republic have taken into account only economic impact of domestic students. But increased globalization processes contribute the growth the number of international students and increase their impact on the economy of a host city. Using data obtained on 2015/2016 academic year during questioning of international full-time students of the University of Economics in Bratislava (Slovak Republic) we estimate their direct economic impact on the host city ? Bratislava. We compare this economic impact to those obtained for the University of Economics in Bratislava domestic students in previous researches. We estimate the direct spending by international students studied at the University of Economics in Bratislava in 2015/2016 as 375.29 thousand euros on an annualized basis.
