Abstract

The number of international students enrolled in US colleges and universities doubled in the last two decades, and the majority of these students now come from China, a proportionate increase of sixfold over the last 15 years. This study addresses international Chinese students as prospective viewers, we will describe the adaptive stage of international Chinese students and the cause of cross-cultural adaptation. After reviewing previous related literature, the main findings of this paper are: When the differences between various educational approaches and systems occur, the discrepancies in examination abilities and educational conceptions across nations contribute to the adaptive stage. Moreover, the language efficiency of international Chinese students in the adaptive stage is closely related to their academic achievements. That means whether Chinese international students can successfully navigate cross-cultural adaptation and integrate their language abilities is the key point for them to get involved in indigenous cultures.
