Physical activity is vital for maintaining the health of students on campus. However, there is a lack of research examining International students (IntS) mental and physical activity (PA) needs. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between PA and mental health within an acculturation framework; and to explore IntS experiences with PA and mental health. Two studies were used to address the aims of this study. In study one, secondary data from domestic (n = 4035) and IntS (n = 605) were analyzed. PA mediated the association between stress and mental health but it did not mediate the association between stress and mental illness. In study two, interviews were conducted with 12 IntS, and analyzed using thematic analysis. Results indicate that IntS are facing several cross-cultural, adaptation, and organizational challenges. Higher institutions must continue to explore IntS needs and barriers in order to support them effectively.
