Excerpt
We are sharing our experiences during the acculturation process through three autoethnographic vignettes to reflect on the kind of challenges and opportunities an international graduate student can encounter. It has been more valuable, wonderful and challenging than we thought. Ready to take a huge step forward in our career, we were passionate, determined, and fearless during the application process. As we received our acceptance letters to graduate school, these feelings were accompanied by:-
the excitement of accomplishing a long-lasting dream and opening a gate to the new experiences and opportunities,
-
the fear of unknown and loneliness, and
-
millions of questions about anything that can be imagined about moving to USA.
