Abstract
This study explores the lived experiences of Afghan female students attending universities in Tehran and Qom, Iran, with a focus on their social, cultural, and academic encounters. Utilizing a phenomenological approach and narrative methods, including observations and interviews, the research investigates the experiences of 30 Afghan female graduate students selected through theoretical sampling. Analysis of the narratives derived from these interviews, documented using text analysis methods, suggests that the students' experiences are characterized by more attractions than repulsions. The study highlights the central theme of "sense of security" that emerged from participants' narratives, underscoring its importance for identity expression, opportunities for change, and their presence within the Iranian higher education system.
