Therefore, this study intends to examine the level of sociocultural adaptation and the Education ecosystem on the quality of life of the international student community in Malaysia. This study used quantitative methods with an exploratory research approach. 428 respondents were randomly chosen from five research universities: Universiti Putra Malaysia, Universiti Malaya, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Universiti Sains Malaysia and Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. Data were analysed descriptively and inferentially based on the objectives of the study.
