Although researchers have been probing the
experiences and adaptation processes of international
students for decades, few studies have attempted to
capture the lived experiences of these students in
the students'' own words. Much of the research views
international students as a homogenous group,
disregarding the role an individual s background and
personal experiences play in the adaptation process
of living and studying abroad. This book explores the
adaptation processes of four South Korean students by
asking each student to share his or her lived-story
narrative in his or her own words with limited
editing and revision of each student''s words. By
limiting the focus to South Korean students, this
book aims to examine the extent to which the
experiences and adaptation processes of an assumed
homogenous group actually differ or overlap. The
stories shared by these students illuminate part of
the range of experiences that international students
face while living and studying in the United States.
Such stories provide insight for present or future
international students, instructors working with
international students, and administrators of
international student programs.
