Master of Science in Medical Nutrition - Batch of 2027

Learning experience with ups and downs.

Tips: I transitioned well here as there were numerous advisory sessions and orientation to basically answer everything you need to know. Be prepared for a rigorous journey but the research exposure makes it worthwhile. I wasn't too impressed with the prospects of part time work but if you are quick, you can get a few decent side hustles.

Well organized and welcoming.

Tips: The university is massive so there is lot of walking around campus. Everything is well organised here and that makes learning a lot more straightforward. Professors are well known in their industries and scholarships are available just inquire about the procedure in advance. Part time jobs are few and they pay around 10 to 15 USD per hour if you get one on campus. Downtown Temper is a fun place to hang out.

Transitioning and growth oriented journey.

Tips: The biggest problem for me was food since I am a vegetarian. It took time to transition but then I started cooking for myself and now it's normal. I got a scholarship and applying for it was a necessary part of the application process. In terms of course and University, this feels like a perfect fit for me. But in terms of the country, it is stressful and uncertain, which makes it less than desirable.

Likes (Safety): ASU has its own police department and emergency buttons are installed everywhere on the campus. Police patrols are very frequent and Temper, being a small town, doesn't have a high crime rate. We also get updates about crime around the university through email notifications.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The government is cracking down on the immigration system and making it harder than it already is to settle here in the US. I am hoping it will get better. The only thing that is positive is that after getting education from the US, there are a lot of options not just in the US but around the world.

My college is good enough, providing a lot of opportunities to students, it is good in every aspect.

Tips: Students should be aware of the fees, scholarships, weather, post-graduation opportunities, and environment. Also, compare it with other universities. Talk and connect with people who have been to this university before. Plan your focus area before arriving.

Likes (Student Life): The environment is quite friendly on the campus. As the campus area is quite beautiful, you can spend your whole day on campus. There are many events organised by many clubs, like cultural events for international students, Sports games, etc. There are various hiking, swimming, dance, cultural, and international clubs based in the respective country.

Dislikes (Value for money): I think it's quite expensive, but the education and the infrastructure of the university are good. So it totally depends on us how we thrive in this environment, as competition is everywhere. Although for the international students the fees would be quite expensive.

Arizona State University is a gateway to success for all international students.

Tips: Be prepared for extreme heat, as it is very hot here in Arizona. There are a few communities where you can live with Indians. Start applying for part-time jobs and scholarships as soon as you get access to the Arizona State University portals, and be open to cultural shifts and networking.

Likes (Safety): Since the U. S. offers strong opportunities for permanent settlement with good career prospects. If given the chance, I would like to settle here permanently, as it aligns with my long-term professional and personal goals.

Dislikes (Indian Food): While Indian restaurants are available, they can be a bit pricey compared to home-cooked meals. There are both casual dining and fine-dining options, but I usually prefer cooking myself as it's healthier and more economical. That's why Arizona State University is surrounded by Indian restaurants.

Campus of growth and opportunities.

Tips: Moving away from home is a challenge for everyone. As an Indian, I experienced a cultural shift, as there are no Indian festivals celebrated, and being away from family makes it difficult to maintain my own cultural identity. However, ASU has clubs and organisations that celebrate festivals from all cultures.

Likes (Public transportation): Temper, Arizona in the United States is one of the best town with excellent public transportation. It is very rare in the United States. It has public buses and metro rail which can be used right from the doorstep. Also, the town has Valley metro buses and street car which provides ride without any charges.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Since 2024, part-time job opportunities on campus have decreased, mainly due to budget cuts. Many students have lost their part-time positions, and pay for existing workers has not increased significantly. New workers also receive lower hourly wages. The limited number of jobs is a result of increased student numbers and fewer available positions.
