    • Abstract:
      This study investigated the academic success of international students who took the course MAT 111 coded Mathematics 1 offered in the Fundamental Sciences of Engineering Departments of Sakarya University of Applied Sciences (SUBU) Faculty of Technology (TF), a state university in Turkey established in 2018, in the fall semester of 2021/22. The end-of-semester grades of all students from SUBU Student Affairs Office and data from SUBU International Student Center were used as data. In the final section, the success status of national and international students is discussed, and suggestions are made for possible failures of international students due to adjustment and mathematical literacy.
