The cost of living and tuition fees are quite high in the Netherlands
Tips: It's a huge transformation coming abroad, because you first step out of your comfort zone, learn to do things by yourself, manage finances, learn to cook and manage the household better. You tend to explore things and gain experiences along the way, both personally and professionally. There are cultural differences, and you learned to adapt to the new environment and compared to the Indian system, I personally feel, it has made me more punctual, made me share my own opinion, and more professional overall. I am very satisfied with the university, its method of teaching, and the faculty. It's different and a better way of learning compared to India. The Netherlands, overall is a very beautiful and peaceful country to live in, with a lot of opportunities and the best public transport system.
Likes (Indian Food): The Netherlands has a wide variety of food options; there are multiple Indian restaurants and food delivery apps that make life easier, however the only downfall could be the pricing. I prefer to cook for myself, as it makes it cheaper. There are cheap supermarket like Jumbo, Lidl, and Dirk that makes it manageable.
Dislikes (Value for money): In my opinion, the cost of living and tuition fees are quite high in the Netherlands, compared to other EU countries. However, if the right efforts are put in and opportunities are used well, the tuition fee and living costs can be paid back with great post graduation opportunities.

Master's experience at Utrecht University was memorable.
Tips: Utrecht is a very small city, but it is one of the busiest ones in the country; as such, it is very tough to find housing, which means that rent can be quite high. The university itself has multiple campuses scattered across the city, and depending on your major, you may have most of your classes in one or more campuses. The Dutch education system can be tough at first, given the study load it entails, so it may take some time and a lot of effort to adjust if you are unfamiliar with it.
