Overall experience

I would advise all incoming students to study in a good university with a good course.

Selection process and gaining admission

I took the GRE and the TOEFL examination. I did not take coaching classes. Counsellors are also not required. I applied for F1 Visa. The interview was good. I travelled by Lufthansa The airline was very comfortable. I got student fare as well as extra baggage. I landed on IAD airport in Washington DC. I had a "Meet and Greet" program at the airport.

Funding and scholarships

I have a scholarship as well as a part-time job.

Your study experience

I am very happy with the way the program has been structured. The professors are good but there is a big scope for improvement. My lecture halls are excellent. I can say the same for my library.

Your life experience

I do not stay in the housing provided by the university. I have rented an apartment. The night life in the city is also quite decent. The weather here is unpredictable. I do have a part time job. There are international student societies which have a lot of special events.

Job prospects

My university has a placement cell. Job prospects are difficult for international students. The work permit process is also difficult. The alumni network is very active.

Would you recommend your institution to future students?

Yes
