Abstract
International students (N= 230) completed the Noncognitive Questionnaire (NCQ) prior to matriculation as freshmen. Results indicated that noncognitive variables, shown previously to be predictive of academic success for international students, also were predictive of their utilization of counseling center services over a 4‐year period. The three noncognitive variables that significantly (p<.05) predicted counseling center use were understanding and ability to deal with racism, preference for long‐term goals over short‐term, immediate needs, and non‐traditional ways of acquiring knowledge. Implications for designing outreach and counseling services for international students are discussed.
