A great experience and a vibrant student life.
Tips: The only thing I should let people know about studying abroad is to be prepared for cultural shocks and loneliness. I got a 20% international scholarship for my master's program. Not sure about upcoming scholarships. I am moderately satisfied with studying at this university.
Likes (Value for money): I think compared to all others, it is the best value for money. There are other universities providing the same courses with higher fees and without scholarships. I am not sure about the exact difference, but I can say that those who have a good academic background and want an easy study life. to go for it.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I am a vegetarian and there are less options available for vegetarians. There are Indian restaurants available. They are mostly costly and far from the university. I prefer to cook the food by myself and I strictly follow a vegetarian diet.
