Challenges faced by foreign students

Abstract

My project focuses on researching the challenges faced by foreign students in adapting to new educational environments and the need for institutions to provide sufficient support. Through a review of peer-reviewed articles and podcasts, I emphasize the importance of institutional change and supporting all students, the shortcomings of host societies that create obstacles for international students, and a shift from the traditional view of international students to international studies. The research will take place at SUNY Purchase College in New York, where I will interview international students and international student coordinators to share their perspectives. The project will be concluded in the form of a podcast, with the goal of helping educational institutions to understand the difficulties faced by international students and provide better support.
