Abstract :Research suggests a great deal of benefits of study abroad programs for both students and the host communities. As a result, millions of students worldwide choose to study in an institution outside their own country each year in the hope of learning a foreign language, developing an awareness of foreign cultures, and acquiring skills that may assist them in global contexts. However, not all study abroad students seem to benefit from such programs at the same level due to various factors. The current meta-synthesis of study abroad research examines othering as one of the factors that impedes development process of international students by reviewing 15 studies that were published in various academic journals between 2021 and 2011. The results suggest that the most frequently experienced dimension of othering is racism, followed by stereotyping and discrimination in both academic and social contexts.
