“…International or cross-border student migration rapidly increased since the beginning of twenty-first century and is expanding. Thus, as many different fields are influenced by the rapid changes in the world, higher education is also affected; many students leave their home country each year to study abroad and become a part of the international migration movement [5][6][7][8][9].

“…Yaşamaya başladıkları yeni çevre, bireylerin kendi kültürüne benziyorsa daha az, benzemiyorsa daha fazla uyum sorunları ile karşılaşmalarına neden olmaktadır (10).
