Cover Story: Despite significant numbers of students studying internationally, there are few data about the study abroad experiences of transgender and gender-expansive (TGE) students. Therefore, 15 U.S. TGE adults were interviewed about navigating gender and culture during their undergraduate study abroad. Data were analyzed using consensual qualitative research. The participants shared how they benefited from international study and navigated intersecting identities. They discussed how they managed disclosure and its consequences, explored their identities in new cultural contexts, and dealt with anticipated and actual harm. Relationships and community were priorities for participants, and they reflected on unique interpersonal considerations that arose from their identities. Implications for future research and study abroad interventions are provided. View this paper
