The following points became clear for the results of the two surveys.1)One of the most serious difficulties that international students face has to do with finance. However, the situationin 2012 became better than in 2003 for privately financed students due to the new policy of prioritizing entry into theinexpensive university dormitories as well as their better financial condition owing to the economic development oftheir countries. The economic gap between the government financed students and the privately financed students hasbeen reduced. 2)The other serious difficulty international students face is Japanese language. They thinkcommunication in Japanese is especially difficult. 3)Getting a permanent job became more serious for internationalstudents. 4)With regard to accommodations, some students still have complaints and requests though the conditionbecame better than in 2003. 5)The percentage of undergraduate international students facing various difficulties ishigher than those of research students and graduate students in 2012 as in 2003. 6)23% of international studentsrealize that it is not so easy to socialize with Japanese (students).}, pages = {145--171}, title = {留学生は何に困難を感じているか ‐2003年と2012年のアンケート調査結果から‐}, year = {2014} }
