Abstract
"The issue of international students in higher education is considered highly important in many countries. The current article considers the influences on the intercultural adaptations of international students at a host university during study abroad. It presents detailed results of a small-scale research project undertaken as a part of the course aimed at assisting students to manage educational research both more efficiently and effectively. This work was purposed to find out international students problems of ‘settling in’ in the foreign university and identify some aspects that influence this process. The research finds out a deeper understanding of the specific problems international students face when they arrive, and what kind of support international students can obtain from the foreign university and evaluate the effectiveness of the support provided by the host university. The article will examine both contextual and political aspects and will make some suggestions and recommendations into the context of the host university. "
