| Description | In this chapter, I explore international students' experiences and challenges regarding mental health and well-being during COVID-19 in the United States. By conducting 3 virtual focus group interviews with 18 international students in 3 groups, 5 key themes were identified: corona depression, (not) seeking help for mental health, social isolation and homesickness, anxiety about uncertain legal status, and anxiety about limited career development opportunity. Implications and recommendations for researchers and practitioners are discussed to support international students' well-being during and after COVID-19 pandemic.
