Abstract

Numerous institutions list hosting and recruiting international students as an important aspect of their internationalization mission. Reasons include the financial benefit to the institution and the local economy; job creation; recruitment of high-quality graduate assistants; increased diversity in the classroom and on campus; and creating international partnerships. However, new changes to immigration laws in the USA have had a negative impact on international college student enrollment. The purpose of this case study is to integrate the Hossler and Gallagher (1987) three-phase model of college student choice with the push and pull factors relating to how international students choose US colleges, to arrive at a descriptive understanding of how international students make their college choice decision.

美国某地区大学国际学生的大学选择决策

许多机构将接待和招收国际学生列为其国际化使命的一个重要方面。原因包括对机构和当地经济的财政利益；创造就业机会；招聘高质量的研究生助理；增加课堂和校园的多样性；以及建立国际伙伴关系。然而，美国移民法的新变化对国际大学生入学产生了负面影响。本案例研究的目的是将Hossler和Gallagher（1987）的大学生选择三阶段模型与国际学生如何选择美国大学相关的推拉因素相结合，从而对国际学生如何做出大学选择决定有一个描述性的理解。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Research in International Education is an international, peer-reviewed journal in international education for schools, examiners and higher education institutions throughout the world. The Journal of Research in International Education seeks to advance the understanding and significance of international education. It sets out to undertake a rigorous consideration of the educational implications of the fundamental relationship between human unity and human diversity that ''education for international understanding'' requires. The JRIE encourages an approach to research in international education that will close the gap between the well established emergent theory and diverse practice throughout the world. In this context, international education is concerned with the promotion of education for international understanding and human rights, and may include peace education, global education and intercultural education. Authors may address, for example, the curriculum, institutional concerns, the history of education, policy and pedagogy at all levels.
