<p>International students are integral in U.S. higher education institutions, and research demonstrates that these students face a range of concerns, with race and racism being understudied. In this dissertation, I present two chapters highlighting the racialized experiences of international students of color. In the first theoretical chapter, I connected international student literature to tenets of Critical Race Theory. I ended with specific recommendations for the field of counseling psychology. In the second empirical chapter, I conducted a narrative inquiry and interviewed 6 Asian Indian international students about how they formed understandings of race and racism in the United States. Through using reflexive thematic analysis, four themes of antiessentialism and intersectionality, social construction of race, sources of racial construction, and impacts of racial construction were developed. Using these results, I provided insights into how international students from India may understand race and implications for clinical practice, higher education, and research. </p>
