Dubai is a very multicultural city.

Tips: Since Dubai is a very multicultural city, the transition was quite smooth. People from many different nationalities live and work here, so it's easy to adapt. I didn't experience a major cultural shift, and the environment felt quite welcoming. I did not receive a scholarship, but I was eligible for the UAE Golden Visa under the Outstanding Student Category based on my GPA. I was satisfied with my experience. The course was practical and relevant to the industry, the university provided a supportive learning environment, and Dubai offers good career opportunities for students and professionals.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): The UAE has introduced long term visa options like the Golden Visa, which makes it easier for people to stay here for many years. Dubai also offers good career opportunities and a high quality of life, which is attractive for professionals. I would definitely consider staying in Dubai because of the safety, lifestyle, and career opportunities here.

Dislikes (Student Life): I was doing my Master's while working full time. My classes were usually in the evening and sometimes went on until night, so most of my time was split between work and attending lectures. Because of this, I didn't really have much time to participate in college events or student activities. My typical day was work during the day and classes in the evening. Even though I didn't experience much of the student life, I still enjoyed the learning and interacting with classmates who were also working professionals.

Dynamically tempting but supportively slow.

Tips: One must be outgoing and dynamic before attending this college. If you are self employed then fine otherwise try to build some skills of extroversion as it will help you in the long run in the UAE. Develop that strength to know more about what is going on in this world. It will look like India but it is not India when it comes to settling down.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Not only by their academic accreditation but the depth of knowledge they carry is sublime and polished. Go and have 1on1 sessions with them regarding your research and you’ll find yourself in an ocean. For post graduate students who will be taking Marketing or Finance as their specialisation you should have professional sessions with the academic professors every single month as it will make you gain a lot.

Dislikes (Part time work): As per the laws in UAE, legally you can’t do part time work. But if you get an internship during your masters you can work in the day and attend classes in the evening. Post graduate lectures are conducted in the evening. But for Bachelors you can’t work part time.
