Corresponding to the growth of the immigrant population in the late-20th and early-21st centuries, immigrants’ difficulties have been intensified and diversified in the United States. Drawing on the lens of social exclusion, this study aims to synthesize recent qualitative studies on immigrants’ challenges in the United States. This study conducted a systematic review with 22 studies on immigrants’ exclusion experiences. Results from this study indicate several types of immigrants’ social exclusion and barriers to their inclusion. The findings of this study fortify our understanding of the social exclusion dynamics among immigrants and provide meaningful implications for their social inclusion.
