The article considers the specifics of acculturation of foreign students. It is stated that the characteristic features of older adolescence is a favorable factor for ensuring the successful acculturation of foreign students. It was determined that the successful adaptation of young people to new environmental conditions largely depends on the ethnic psychological characteristics of students and the type of relationships that prevail in their usual society. It is concluded that the successful adaptation of students is largely due not only to their individual psychological characteristics, but also to their socio-cultural background. It is concluded that modern universities have significant potential to ensure the successful acculturation of foreign students.
