Steady for growth here.
Tips: I have seen both ups and downs after coming here. The competition has increased and so have its challenges but the quality of education and research work here has also been up to the mark. Professors are involved and understanding so feel free to email them in case you require extra assistance or help. Peers are also motivating and helpful so group projects can teach you a lot.

Good classes and professors.
Tips: I have experienced both ups and downs here but my experience is mostly positive as classes are interesting and the university is well connected. Something that you should know is that it is a very Catholic university and although it is respectful, you should be comfortable with getting used to the idea of their faith being a central aspect here. Professors are helpful with lessons and job prospects are limited with all the new regulations, so make sure you do your research.

Tips: The academics here are good but the class sizes are big which can limit interaction at times and the competition can get real.

A decent university for a Master's degree, but students need to put in more effort to find jobs.
Tips: Know the college environment and how it functions beforehand by connecting with seniors. Make sure you know what you are getting into, the pros and cons. Getting scholarships in an Engineering college is a bit challenging. A very few selected students get it.
Likes (Public transportation): The connectivity is good. There are buses and trains connecting to major places. You get an online schedule of all the buses and trains, which helps in planning beforehand about your planning. The transportation is free for students or offered a discounted, affordable prices.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): In the current situation, getting 1 interview is very difficult solely based on your application. Referrals from a person in a position to recruit managers, leads are very much needed. Companies are not that enthusiastic about sponsorship. In the current situation lot of companies prefer students with Bachelor's degrees who would cost less to the company.

High competition for jobs due to competition and immigration.
Tips: Coming to the University of Texas at Dallas was overwhelming at first. It took me a while to settle down but once the classes began I started seeing more people from India, my home country so I felt comfortable. The university does provide scholarships based on GRE score and it is half the fees annually.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): The number of immigrants in Texas is huge compared to other states in the US. There are so many Indians who have come and settled in Texas which makes you feel like you're at home. Also, many of the companies are moving towards Texas as it is comparatively cheaper so the job opportunities are also increasing.
Dislikes (Internships): The job market in the US is currently bad and not many companies are hiring interns. Companies used to hire 10+ interns before but now are only hiring 1 intern. So the competition has also increased and since there are a lot of international students in the US, you are competing against millions for one internship.

Great University with great quality of faculty.
Tips: The experience has certainly taught me a lot. The cultural shift was immense. While there is a big Indian student community, you have people grouping up with other students from the same region, often creating a sense of micro-groups that speak specific languages. Local people are friendly, like talking to you and are inclined to help you too. There are all kinds of people on campus, and you will be able to find something interesting for you if you try and look for it. You need to work heavily on time management and plan everything according to your coursework. It is important to have a good social circle when you need assistance on coursework, but also try to make friends outside of this. All in all, it is a new experience, so try to do new things while ensuring you keep your academic performance at its best.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty on campus, especially programme directors and some professors are really approachable and knowledgeable. You can set up appointments or walk-in to their office if they are available, and they are happy to help answer any questions you have.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I would love to move to the United States permanently, however the current conditions make it very difficult for people to find a good job opportunity. Pay in the United States is also slowly reducing for entry level roles while competition is also increasing. These factors are making it less favorable for international students. Semester fees are also increasing with a consistent increase in living expenses.

Great University experience but limited jobs
Tips: It's a great college and a good opportunity to find peers and friends who are interested in the same things as you. The only thing is that they don't provide any support in finding jobs so you are on your own when it comes to finding roles. Choose your master's program wisely.
Likes (Public transportation): Great connectivity by DART. Robust network significantly helps students in transportation from a lot of pick-up points near campus however, Dallas in general doesn't have great public transportation. It is affordable and reliable for students and everyone.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): For Marketing, very limited jobs are available as most companies don't want to sponsor especially in this economy. It is very much luck dependent, even though having a STEM degree helps but mostly it's about choosing the right subjects and having the right experience.

A friendly university to study.
Tips: UT Dallas is a friendly university where students from all the geographies are welcomed. You can achieve academic excellence with the resources provided by the college. There is a nice gym in the college which can be used as a time pass and stress buster. UT Dallas is moderately expensive compared to the other universities. It is a good choice but the best advise will be to calculate the return on investment, and compare it to other colleges.
Likes (Public transportation): Starting from nearby places till the airport that is, 25 Kms, you can travel freely with the Go Pass. You will find a bus for every route that you want to travel to. The most common one is the 883, which is used for day to day commute to the University and nearby places. Others are 232 and 241 which can be used to other routes.
Dislikes (Part time work): Some places where the current students work as part-time workers are Dining, Student Union and Career Centre. Other positions where a student can work and earn dollars are Teaching Assistant and Research Assistant. There are opportunities but the competition is also huge. You need referrals even for low wage jobs.

A supportive career focused campus with great opportunities.
Tips: Utd offers scholarships like AES, dean's excellence and department awards, some cover partial tuition or give small stipends. Apply early, keep strong academics and keep checking funds each semester.
Likes (Public transportation): It's pretty much connected and it's free transportation. You have west and east bus routes. West - Pearl, EOF, and East - EOR, Marquis, and a bit more apartments for the bus route. There are bus stops and a metro near the university to the airport.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Lennox, CBRE, Mr Cooper, and ISN are some companies that offer jobs and there are a lot of small and large companies in the Dallas uptown and downtown, where they sponsor students for better jobs and better pay. Check out companies like Spectrum, T-Mobile, and Goldman Sachs, which sponsor students.

There are very few job opportunities available for international students.
Tips: Studying here taught me how to slow down and truly absorb everything that is going on. Here, I got a lot of time to truly learn, grow and reflect. The downside is that there are close to no jobs and openings for international students, and a lot of research funding has been cut, which is making it seem like a somewhat hostile landscape right now. Detroit is a couple of hours away, and we would make it a point to go there every two weeks for supplies and entertainment.

The student life is very diverse and the faculty helps you to grow big in your professional life.
Tips: Initially, I came for the August 2022 intake and I stayed on campus for the first semester and had a lot of American friends over there and also made Indian friends in classes then moved off campus in the second semester which helped me save some money. People in Mount Pleasant are warm and welcoming, and there is no crime rate. We don't specifically have any scholarships for international students but I highly recommend students apply for graduate assistance as they will be selected if they score a good grade in the semester in all subjects so that they will be waving one subject fee in the next semester and it repeats every year if you continue as a graduate assistant. On a scale of 10, I would rate 8 for CMU in terms of university subjects, accommodation and the environment.
Likes (Quality of faculty): For Masters in Information Systems, we have highly qualified professionals who make understanding the subject very easy as they will clarify your doubts and also help you with the assignment doubts. The core structure will be divided into parts in such a way that from the understanding of the class you have to do assignments weekly and there will be tests every month all over the semester and one final exam. Every assignment and in-class activity will be evaluated and given a score at the end so I highly recommend not to miss any class. Here, I felt a different way of teaching style as compared to India. The professors at CMU will explain a topic and at the same time make you do the assignments based on the concepts they have told us so that we will be able to grasp them quickly and get hands-on experience on the topic.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Central Michigan University is located in Mount Pleasant. Here there are no Indian restaurants or stores where people from India can try so we have to rely on American food such as McD, Burger King etc. To have Indian food we have to travel to the nearest big city Lansing which is an hour's drive from Mount Pleasant or Detroit ( Farmington Hills ) which is a two-hour drive, where we can explore a lot of Indian cuisine and grocery stores, that is the reason why I chose one star for country food in Mount Pleasant. You can try Qdoba or Chipotle as these tastes will be the nearest to Indian food. A bowl will cost around 12- 20 $ depending on what your protein toppings are. As we don't have a lot of Indian options around Mount Pleasant we almost cook at home and invite friends over weekends to cook biryanis. Once every month we go outings to Lansing to have Indian food and watch movies.

Serenity but challenging
Tips: Campus is really huge so it's good for walking. College conducts a lot of activities so it's fun and students can enjoy. CMU could be the best option if you are looking for courses with reasonable fees and low living expenses. However, if someone is looking high standard and wanna see US life then I doubt CMU can be a good fit.
Likes (Student Life): Mount Pleasant city is mainly known for Central Michigan University so we only see people on main campus. There is nothing much to do outside campus. There is no single Indian restaurant in Mt Pleasant. However, there are places nearby where you can roam around but need to look for public transport if you don't have a private vehicle which is again a big problem. There is nothing much in Mt Pleasant but CMU is the main reason for being in Mt Pleasant. College conduct a lot of activities so students can enjoy their time in campus.
Dislikes (Public transportation): There is only one public transport iRide which has fixed spots for pickup and drop. For commute, need to schedule in advance and waiting time is too long. It's ok during summer but really challenging during winter because of snowfall. Most of graduates' classes are in evening and there is no public transport after 8 pm. After 8 pm there is only one which is at 10 pm and nothing in between 8-10 pm.

I like CMU and never thought I made a wrong decision.
Tips: Life here is not as shown in movies. Prepare for the worst and you will survive not only here but in any other part of the world. Part-time jobs take time but you need to be patient. You can apply from India and come over here and work immediately. The climate here is very cold be prepared when you arrive. You can buy winter clothes here so don't buy winter clothes or a laptop if you don't have one.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty are approachable and they welcome any sort of disagreement in the class. I have fun attending and learning things, it is way different from India. The assignments are not heavy but still make your whole week busy. To meet the faculty you need to make a prior appointment and it's complex at times but the best thing is to get your doubts clarified once the class is finished. Faculty will spend extra time if you ask questions after class.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The place where I live doesn't have any Indian stores but the food can be managed if you can cook with what you get. Try to bring spices and a cooker from India and, if possible, avoid salt and sugar for immigration purposes. Food is not that big issue here you will adjust.

Hard to find part-time work.
Tips: Don't panic. The moment you enter the university seeing new people. Stay calm and join any student association they will help you in your hour of need. There are Indian stores nearby. There is so many Indian students association available. These are things students should know.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Most of the faculty in this university have high knowledge in their field. Some professors are doing research in their field that would benefit the students under the faculty. The faculty is very jovial and friendly with the students. They are supporting students in every way possible.
Dislikes (Part time work): Nowadays it is very competitive to get work. The only place you can do part-time is in college that too from 1st year 2nd sem. You will get that job only if your academics are high and with the connections you made with the seniors and with the faculty. Most of the cases getting part-time is hard.
