Abstract | Although current research has yielded rich information on international students' experiences pursuing U.S. education, this examination has been mostly on discrete elements. ... An integrated perspective... is lacking in the extant literature. This study investigated multiple aspects [of the topic] as a multi-phase process consisting of pre- arrival motives, experience within academic programs, and impact of U.S. education. Coping strategies were explored as part of an adaptive mechanism that encompassed various resources at different institutional levels. The study examined data from multiple sources to provide an integrated description of international students' undertaking graduate education in the United States. The objectives of the study were to derive a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of learning in cross-cultural settings..., and to provide information that could be used as a basis for educational and administrative change.
