Produktbeschreibung
International students constitute a significant and growing student population in many colleges and universities around the world. Studies show that though international students represent a variety of cultures, the challenges they face during their education abroad tends to be similar, with a varying degree in difficulty. These issues vary from challenges in mastering the local languages, cultural norms, food tastes as well as the social shock of being away from family and friends. These challenges are serious especially for those students who are travelling to countries with different cultures. Research shows that these students encounter problems adjusting to new academic and social environments when they go abroad for higher education. This book examines the relationship between international students' adjustment to college, background characteristics and academic success through a quantitative analysis. The findings should be useful for higher education practitioners and administrators, especially for those who work with international students.
