4.1

Chulalongkorn University has the best faculty and there are many on campus activities for students.

Tips: Before coming to Chulalongkorn University, students should know that there is a huge cultural shift, the food is different from India, and things are generally expensive, so you have to find ways to save money. On the plus side, the staff and professors are very friendly and supportive, and the university provides many scholarships. Check the university website for more information. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experiences.

Likes (Public transportation): The university has its own bus service, and there are other modes of transportation available on and off campus. Bikes are available throughout the campus and can be accessed via mobile app. In addition, there are private and other public transportation services available.

Dislikes (Part time work): The university provides a good amount of monthly expenses as part of a full scholarship, they don't allow students to work part-time or full-time on or off campus. However, students can work part-time or full-time if they can manage it.
