Internationalism, globalization and student mobility are on the rise and the shores of the world are drawing closer in the realm of higher education. These changes are driven by technology, advancements in media formats and capabilities, and available opportunities for international student admissions into universities in the United States (Enders & Fulton, 2002; McLuhan, 2008; Teichler, 2009). This phenomenon is not unique to, or driven exclusively by, higher education; in fact, 21st century research is showing that international student mobility is accelerating due to significant growth in global trade and industry, increases in foreign-government-sponsored programs for educational purposes, international societal interconnectedness, declining national controls, and increased educational opportunities (Open Doors, 2014; Mazzarol and Soutar, 2012; World Education Services, 2013). In light on these global developments and the resultant increase in international student mobility, it was discovered there was a lack of information regarding why international students choose to attend RUSO schools in the State of Oklahoma to assist recruiting and retention efforts. The purpose of this exploratory sequential mixed method study (N=6 qualitative, N=139 quantitative) was to examine and describe factors that contributed to a decision by international students who choose to study within the RUSO system in Oklahoma. This research purpose is relevant and timely, in that recruitment and retention are key factors for administrators and faculty working to build these programs within the RUSO system. Keywords: decision-making factors, international student mobility, influencers, push/pull factors, migration, international student migration.
