Abstract

The unique concerns of international students on American campuses are often overlooked. Given the evidence that these students are at greater risk for psychological problems, suggests that sufficient mental health services should be readily available. Examines international students' sources of psychological concerns, the reasons for their underutilization of existing counseling services, and ways to provide more culturally sensitive services.
