.Growth and living away.
Tips: Be open for discomfort. Its hard moving countries to a completely foreign place and you will feel the difference and homesickness. Be open to immerse yourself in all the experiences you can possibly get, meet everyone you can and try to talk to everyone.
Likes (Indian Food): I am not usually someone who cooks a lot so there are quite a lot of options for indian food. There are tiffin services as well base on your locality. Maynooth in particular doesn't have a lot but you will find a lot in Dublin and around. In maynooth however there are a lot of food options .
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I think the main difference in colleges here is that they do not offer placements so it is hard and you need to do everything on your own. Most companies take from internships and the rest have specific graduate roles that only open in a certain windows.

Student life at Maynooth university
Tips: I am completely satisfied with university life, but exams might be unpredictable because professors would urge for exams without any prior notice. The university regained my communication and interpersonal skills, and the course structure and academic environment are very flexible and satisfactory.
Likes (Student Life): The classes for business analytics students would be mostly 2 or 3 days per week, which means we can find work-life balance for those who have part-time jobs. Moreover, there are clubs like STEM and other events for students; students who are excited about sports can be part of them but genuinely need to find time to invest in them.
Dislikes (Internships): I rated 1 for internships because there were not many opportunities for M.Sc. business analytics students, as it is just a 1-year course; there was not much direct guidance given from the university side to students, and students needed to search for internships.

A very expensive degree.
Tips: Partially satisfied, best of both worlds, easy going and good education. I cope up pretty well, a bit of cultural shift but it's not as hard. I didn't avail scholarships, I got it through normal means. I feel I am satisfied with my university to a certain level but I am not complaining.

A subtle trampoline for growth.
Tips: I experienced a great cultural shift after coming here. We all have a concrete plan before but landing here nullifies all our expectations and plans. You will 100% come across a path that you didn't plan but is best for your growth. It will take time to assimilate into a new way of life, but sooner or later, you will enjoy it. I didn't get any scholarship. University, course and country, all three are great for me, fully satisfied.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is great at welcoming international students, they organise inclusion events specially to have us international students feel at home. You can easily approach any faculty member regardless of their hierarchy. Teaching methodology is quite different compared to India. After a month or two you will grasp the process. There are lecturers from all across the globe.
Dislikes (Internships): Here in Ireland, it's not like India, where companies will come after. The faculty will provide you with the best tools they can but it's up to our efforts to go after an internship opportunity, so the biggest hurdle for this is you being on a student visa. Companies want to invest their time in people they can train for the long term, and with Visa requirements, there is uncertainty from our side.

You get to experience a lot of things, like new friends, new ethnic exposure, mentors, etc.
Tips: Network with people. Participate in the clubs and other activities. Join the volunteering stuff. Come out of the comfort zone and be independent. Try to make friends with people from other countries you will get a good exposure. Don't be in an Indian group all the time, be self dependent and look for better options. Try to look for accommodation on Facebook. Bring part time CV and give it to as many shops as you can.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty is amazing and super helpful. Teaching is mainly like an open schooling so you have to make notes by yourself as they won't give any notes. Assignments are strict so don't try to copy from the AI, otherwise you will fail in that subject.
Dislikes (Part time work): It's a bit difficult to get part time unless you go alone with a CV and give it to all the shops On campus part time is very competitive but not impossible so keep applying from the college website all the time for the mentor or assistant roles. 14.15/hour is the current payment.
