The objectives of language education have evolved from focusing on linguistic outcomes to contextualized language use. Conceptualizations of communicative competence have further broadened beyond the language-specific and culture-specific skills of the target language community to recognize the need to communicate and function in a wide variety of social situations with diverse interlocutors. This requires intercultural communicative competence. This study applied mixed methods to examine whether this can be observed among students in an English for Academic Purposes (EAP) context. Students' intercultural communicative competence was assessed using the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI), student self-reflections, and teacher feedback. Students' academic success in the EAP program was assessed using course marks, teacher feedback, and students' self-reflection. The findings suggest that students with high intercultural competence tend to have greater academic success in their EAP studies and identify some characteristics of these students.
