international student
Overseas university attendee
An international student is someone studying in a country other than their own, typically on a student visa.
The term appears in discussions of university enrollment, tuition policies, and immigration: International students pay higher fees than in-state residents.
The designation carries administrative and legal weight, determining visa requirements, work restrictions, and access to financial aid.
