Following from that - suppose we had that to/from flow data, how could we plot it in an elegant way ? And could imagine more dimensions - for example relative weight of factors influencing choice of where to study?

You'd want a 2nd chart I'd think with the #1 "from" country for each European country.

#1 would bias towards bigger countries. Migration flows are often shown as a circle plot - but not so easy to read as a map, and lose spatial relations.
