## Abstract
Nomadic students face significant challenges when transitioning to higher education due to cultural, academic, and social differences. This scoping review explores predictors of psychosocial adjustment among nomadic students in global higher education contexts compared to those in Indonesia. Following the PRISMA-ScR protocol, 43 articles were selected from databases including PsycINFO, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Findings reveal that predictors encompass psychological, academic, sociocultural, and life factors. Studies in global higher education contexts emphasize psychological aspects and a more structured adjustment process than those in Indonesia. A key research gap is the need for tailored theoretical concepts that reflect the unique characteristics of nomadic students in Indonesia. The practical implications guide the design of intervention programs to better support nomadic students in adjusting to university life.
