| Abstract: | This study examines the perceptions and experiences of international counseling students (ICSs) in university training programs
in Turkey. A majority of participants reported they had adjusted positively, but did experience problems related to language,
food, and customs. Participants largely also thought that the training in Turkey met their expectations, although some stated
they desired more counseling coursework and applied experiences. More than half of the ICSs surveyed thought that they would
not return to their home countries because of job opportunity problems. The results are considered in relation to counselor
training in Turkey and student adaptation in that context. |
