Background/Objectives: This study was designed to compare the Varimax analysis of Principal Component Analysis(PCA) with the Exploratory Factor Analysis(EFA) method using Maximum Likelihood Estimation(MLE) and oblique rotation(Direct Oblimin) for the multicultural experience of university students. multicultural experience variables of college students were analyzed as two factors through Maximum Likelihood Estimation(MLE). Methods/Statistical analysis Q1, Q2, Q3 are multicultural direct experiences, and Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7 are multicultural indirect experiences. Findings: As a result of this study, it is suggested to use Maximum Likelihood Estimation(MLE) and oblique rotation(Direct Oblimin). As a prerequisite for applying the Maximum Likelihood Estimation(MLE), it is thought that Improvements/Applications it is necessary to increase the accuracy of the response rate by using the face-to-face interview method when conducting a survey.
