Perfect balance of working hard on the coursework and exploring the natural beauty of California.
Tips: Apart from adapting to American culture, everything is pretty easygoing and people are friendly and helpful. I haven't heard of any scholarships for international undergraduates during my time. The course is really satisfying, and there is great exposure for students. The alumni network is good too. The town where I studied was a safe, small college town. Police patrols were common to keep the area safe. I did not experience any sort of crime here that I saw happening in other bigger cities in the US. There are lots of helplines available for various things, and the University has a separate police department.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I didn’t really like the Indian food in San Luis Obispo. There isn’t really an Indian grocery store there, so it was hard to cook Indian food on my own. I normally order Indian food in if I’m busy, but once I’ve eaten all the takeout Indian food around here, I try to cook my own. The grocery stores there have all kinds of herbs and spices, so I have no problem cooking good Indian food at home.
