Abstract	Shifts in demographics of the international graduate student population in the United States since 2002 suggest universities should analyze and evaluate the academic, social, and cultural elements of their doctoral programs, to ensure students from previously underrepresented global regions experience needed adjustment support. The Investigator followed the journeys of three female Asian doctoral students enrolled in a doctoral program over a two year period and discovered challenges and obstacles faced beyond what was previously known. The phenomenological study highlights the students' perspectives of academic and social experiences affecting their adjustment and concludes with a list of questions to consider. (Author).
