Master of Science in Nutrition & Metabolism - Batch of 2028
3.7
The classes are intense and big on projects.
Tips: The classes are intense and big on projects, so if you're someone who likes that sort of setting, you'll be set. Some people have a hard time adjusting, but there's support available, especially mentally, so don't be hesitant if you ever feel the need. My favorite ritual has been weekend potlucks with my friends and taking a day in exploring a new place. Keep yourself engaged and you'll have a good time.

The campus is very diverse; the faculty is very helpful.
Tips: At first, it takes some time to adjust to the new culture. However, it's not long before you feel welcome and right at home. The professors are very involved and dedicated to helping their students. They are also very quick to respond, especially when it comes to urgent messages. The place is truly special. All you have to do is open your mind, take your time to get to know it, and you will be pleasantly surprised.

Master of Fine Arts in Film & Television Studies - Batch of 2026
3.1
Boston is a very historic city while being extremely developed.
Tips: The college and where it is located provides the perfect blend of history and modernity as Boston is a very historic city while being extremely developed as well. People in and out of college are friendly, and it won't take very long to adjust here. Weather is unpredictable and a little extreme. Overall, I would recommend studying here for some programs.
Likes (Indian Food): In this college town, there are tons of Indian restaurants and grocery stores, so food isn’t an issue. I think you should cook for yourself to cut back on expenses, as it might get pricey to support yourself here. There are a lot of different options available, and I think the quality is quite good.

Great academics and interactive classes.
Tips: I have liked the sense of security, the warmth of people, the class structures and the weather. What proves to be a challenge is the job market and the immigration policies, which limit all sorts of chances to actually work there. Always remember to scan your receipts, get Apple Pay and use your student discounts.

MS/MBA in Product Design and Manufacture - Batch of 2025
3.7
Good colleagues and environment.
Tips: I have seen changes in my mentality, in my problem-solving abilities and in the way I perceive things, which I can credit to the time I have spent here so far. It is a very student-friendly and accommodating city, and the campus is beyond extensive. Good classmates, and even though finding a job here is among the most difficult tasks yet, there have been situations where the hardworking has paid off. Rent is expensive, so you can cut costs by using public transport or cooking for yourself. The optional reading is actually compulsory, and showing energy in class is really appreciated.

Beautiful but cold city.
Tips: Boston university must be one of the most well-known and widespread campuses in the entirety of Boston. It is divided into multiple different schools such as Questrom, the business school. Your safety is assured as well as there are many campus cops and patrols. Strike a good rapport with your professors as each good referral will take you a long way.
