Understanding international university students’ integration levels and problems contribute to filling a huge vacuum in the research on refugees, which frequently overlooks the experiences of specific groups. Similarly, higher education policies rarely pay attention to or include the perspectives of international students. As a result, by considering the experiences of K7AU’s international students -the majority of whom are refugees- the current study will shed light on the problems they face.

It also tries to determine the students’ challenges and offer solutions thereunto.Considering the scope of the Council of Higher Education’s internationalization mission and vision, the research aims to establish the academic integration levels of international students studying at K7AU and identify the obstacles they have encountered.

The study also intends to give various recommendations based on quantitative assessments and relevant findings.
