Explanation
The structure of this sentence demands a little extra attention. It is those who do not embrace the values of their homeland who do worse academically, so it is they who pay the price.
What comes at a price, then, is embracing the culture of the new home. You want words that name the process of becoming part of a new land and culture.
Hence options acculturation, assimilation are correct!
