Abstract This study investigates students' challenges in academic institutions as they transition to a dominant language. It likewise explores strategies to address these challenges, ultimately enhancing successful integration. It employed a qualitative research design. The 12 participants were selected using purposive sampling. They were Sama students studying at Mindanao State University – Tawi-Tawi College of Technology and Oceanography, adapting to the dominant language, Sinug. The responses in the focus group discussion were analyzed thematically to identify the challenges and coping strategies the participants faced and employed, respectively. The identified challenges are vocabulary barriers, cultural bias, identity crisis, social isolation, linguistic inequality, and identity formation. At the same time, the identified coping strategies are language immersion, peer support, speaking in the lingua franca, utilizing electronic resources, language exchanges, building vocabulary, and cultural immersion.
