Abstract: This study explains why international students from India and Nigeria choose The University of Tampa “a mid-sized private university in the southeastern part of United states” for their master’s program. Both qualitative and quantitative processes were used to explain the reason behind their decision- making process. The research sample comprised 15 participants from India and Nigeria who were either current graduates or alumni of the university. The research findings reveal that better technology, recognized degrees, better teaching standards, and better career opportunities are the factors for selecting the U.S. for higher studies. On the other hand, exact same tuition for international and national students, teaching standards, flexibility in the curriculum, electives, and location were the other factors that influenced them in selecting the University of Tampa for their master's program.
