Abstract
The number of international students in the United States' higher education health professions' classroom grows with each year. These students have diverse needs compared to U.S. students. This qualitative study describes the lived experiences of 10 international nursing students representing 8 countries of origin and prelicensure programs in 5 states. Findings illustrate the need for prelicensure faculty to develop a curriculum structure specific to academic, language, pedagogical, clinical, social, and cultural needs of these students.
