international students' culture shocks

While Asian Americans and other AAPI groups have recently gained representation through legislation, cinema, and literature, a niche group has yet to be spoken up for: International School Students in America. Neither fitting into the category of "minority" nor fully belonging to any one culture, I and many of my peers face constant imposter syndrome after leaving our haven. Today, Sarah and I discuss why the socioeconomic upbringings in an international school community may increase students' imposter syndrome once entering a more diverse American university. We conclude by discussing how we've navigated these culture shocks in our own ways.
