A review of Boston University
Tips: There is a community for everyone. A lot of Indians or south Asian there. A lot of places to go. A lot of restaurants with different cuisines and cultures. I did get a scholarship. Negotiate for more scholarship if you can. I was moderately satisfied with the course. The faculty could improve.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport connects the entire city, and it is very student-friendly and safe. The campus is very well connected to the city. If you pay around 100 dollars, you will be able to get an unlimited pass for buses and trains, so it's excellent for students.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): You will get opportunities to work in co. panies if you work hard on your projects. But the only problem is the work visa which is a total hastmsle. If you have opt use it wisely because you might have to leave the US after it ends. Most companies do not sponsor h1b

Great university and helpful staffs.
Tips: The transition from life back home and here is quite prevalent. But I had an easy time adapting as the city is very student-friendly and welcoming, and the university takes measures to help you out with administrative stuff once you arrive. No part-time jobs off campus, and for on-campus opportunities, there are limited spots. Public transport is free, and my experience has been quite great so far.

Lovely and fulfilling experience.
Tips: The weather has been the biggest change for me here and there is a lot of stuff that you will have to buy locally rather than from back home such as jackets, shoes, adapters, Instant Pot and more. Sometimes you can get discounted stuff at garage sales or from seniors who are moving out and wish to get rid of their stuff such as kitchenware or furniture. Academically, the university is pretty good and offers many courses and chances to experiment.

Student-friendly and diverse.
Tips: This is a lively city and I've never seen a campus as spread out as Boston University. The best aspects include the safety, easily accessible transportation and the fact that the whole town is student friendly. However the cost of rent and living is quite expensive. You'll need to compensate by budgeting carefully in other areas. Also tuition is very high so be sure you've considered this carefully before coming here.

The classes are intense and big on projects.
Tips: The classes are intense and big on projects so if you are someone who likes that sort of setting you'll be set. Some people have a hard time adjusting her 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. Great experiences

Strong academics and a vast college.
Tips: My programme at Boston University is quite vigorous and heavy and some of the assignments have given me sleepless nights. Professors here really emphasise research and clarity and a lot of your projects will also require the same energy. Jobs are not really easy to get any longer because of all the changes and BU is an expensive school so consider all your options.
