Abstract

This study assessed the experiences of international students in terms of perceived discrimination and sense of belongingness at a university in the United States. I found that sense of belongingness in, on, and off campus community diminishes among those students who indicated experiencing discrimination than those who did not report experiencing discrimination. In addition, the result confirmed that international students from different regions experience discrimination in various degrees.
