- Abstract
This paper is a research into the barriers for Chinese students in overseas study which take the China “Two Plus Two” students in School of Science, X University, Canada as a case. On the basis of individual and group interviews, findings show that Chinese students meet obstacles in language, academic study, integration of domestic culture. Compared to the support to the students provided by both X University and its Chinese partner universities, recommendations are also made on how to help the students to adapt better from the perspectives of both Chinese and Canadian Universities and the students themselves.
