Abstract: The purpose of this study is dual in nature. The first is to review the literature in order to investigate the important stages of an international student's sojourn, to identify and define the offices and persons in the American university that directly serve the international student, and to discover the views of the experts in regard to curriculurn and ways the international student can benefit the American campus and community. This research into the literature reveals a brief history of international students, both abroad and in the United States, why students come to America to study, and from what countries these people come. This investigation also describes the recruitment of foreign students, admissions offices and requirements, activities of the foreign student offices and advisers, academic advising and faculty, the teaching of English as a Second Language, community involvement, and alumni operations.
