Abstract
This qualitative phenomenologic study explores the meaning of crossing cultures as experienced by Jordanian graduate students in nursing. Seven male and female students participated in conversations and journals regarding their experiences in the academic, social and professional realms of an American culture at a private, mid-Atlantic university. An analysis of the text revealed an overarching theme, “metamorphosis of self.” Events leading to the metamorphosis included being chosen, experiencing a time full of memories, feeling bombarded with stimuli and “looking to do something” as professional nurses in Jordan.
