Master of Information System Management - Batch of 2026
4.1
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.
Tips: My transition was smooth. I did not face a lot of problems. The cohort is small but everyone is accommodating and friendly. I got a 25% scholarship, which was through my course. I did not have to do anything for it. I like the university and my course a lot.

Academic yet rewarding university.
Tips: CMU is one of the most diverse and academically demanding universities out there so you should be ready to give your 100% from the very get go. Classes are challenging but they're structured in a way to bring out the best of you and there are plenty of networking opportunities, as well as career fairs and mixers which you should check out. Professors give you a lot of freedom but you will be expected to advocate for yourself and manage your work life balance to the best of your ability. Pittsburgh is quite a lovely city to live in.

Place to aspire to study.
Tips: I have experienced a lot of change in my attitude and outlook on how I perceive things and situations. CMU has a very global campus, so you'll meet people from all over the world, especially India. Lots of resources as well, which you should make use of. People can be a bit more reserved than you'd expect, and the classes have a very high academic standard. Try not to burn out during your time here.
