This book presents a rigorous and multidisciplinary exploration of the complex academic, social, and economic realities that shape the experiences of international students.From historical mobility patterns and economic considerations to cultural adaptation and mental health challenges, this volume provides nuanced insights into the lived experiences of international students navigating unfamiliar academic and social environments. Chapters examine internal and external factors that influence the choices international students make in their country of study, as well as the finance and economics of higher education, contributions of international students to the economies of the United States and Canada, the impact of mental health care systems in both countries and how they contribute to international students’ academic success.Drawing on empirical research, case studies, and theoretical frameworks, this is an invaluable resource for academics, policymakers, and practitioners seeking to deepen their understanding and provide support for international students in higher education institutions.
