Not easy, but memorable and totally worth it.
Tips: The transition was easy if you know what to expect and what not to. You'll do your own chores, cooking, cleaning, laundry, groceries etc. You'll do your own furniture assembly, moving and all that difficult stuff, just like everyone else here. But what you'll gain is experience, friends and learn how to survive on your own. It's all a part of the process of becoming adjusted to life in the US. Good experiences.
Likes (Public transportation): College includes public transport in the fees. Buses, trains, etc. in Pittsburgh, are already included and the connectivity across the city via buses is very convenient. The buses run till late hours in the night, and CMU provides shuttle and campus escorts late into the night when buses are not available.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Chances of permanent immigration/settlement is low since the H1b / Eb2 route has a lot of people from my country, causing extremely high wait times. You can be optimistic, but if things don't work out, have a backup in mind. The US allows you in for study/work realistically, that's all you should expect to be on a visa. If something works out otherwise, I'd call it an optimistic scenario using other routes, not the ground truth.

Welcoming and open environment.
Tips: There were no major culture shocks apart from the fact that people are more direct in their approach and socialising is more than just an expectation. The culture is very academic and it can get competitive at times. Case studies and presentations are the norm, so you'll have to learn how to be a team player and work with people. There is ongoing support that doesn't subside after the first few days.

All around academic excellence.
Tips: After moving here, I have not experienced any cultural shift, mostly because I think nobody moving after working for a few years and is from a metro city back in India, the lifestyle remains pretty much the same and there are just some more social rules and regulations to keep in mind that probably take a few days to get used to. I was fortunate enough to get 15% scholarship based on my academic excellence and profile. It gets deducted every semester. I am very satisfied with the course and the university. The institution offers excellent academic rigour with outstanding professors and really well designed courses.
Likes (Public transportation): College students have free public transport and this saves a lot of money as a student. There are plenty of options for public buses from the university to travel anywhere you want in the city. The university itself offers shuttle services for students including late night shuttles for those staying back in college post 10 pm.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Chances of me settling in that country are below average because of visa issues and constant changes being introduced for the visa. I value flexibility with respect to travelling and going back to my home in India and because there is so much uncertainty around the visa.

Great to polish yourself academically.
Tips: Studying here will surely be intense. You will have a heavy work load and you will also feel like you're falling behind. Remember that the process is the same for everyone and there are some helpful campus resources you can always take advantage of. I enjoy classroom discussions and the brand value of studying here is unmatched. Labs are well equipped as well and professors have been very helpful.

Great college for academically intense students.
