Recent studies indicate that the academic and social integration of overseas students in the destination country often plays a major role in their academic performance, employability outcomes and integration into the wider community. This study investigates these issues in more depth from the perspective of overseas Chinese in the Southwest UK, aiming to improve understanding of their academic, well-being and sociocultural adaptation. The results indicate that academic and social integration continue to hold a strong positive correlation as previously indicated. Other factors and barriers against integration are addressed and policies are suggested to promote integration not only within the university but also the wider community.
