M.A. Economics - Batch of 2025

4.1

Been a mixed batch of experiences.

Tips: Atlanta can be a mixed experience for people but downtown where the campus is located, is filled with opportunities and more. Sometimes it is hard to meet people outside classes and this can be hard to combat but I do appreciate the culture and diversity present on campus. The faculty is helpful and will encourage you to participate in on-campus activities and extracurriculums.

M.S. Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling - Batch of 2026

Great learning with amazing academics and faculty.

Tips: I had a slight culture shock when I initially got here owing to which it took me a while to settle down and make friends. This was mainly because of how individualistic everything appeared but once my classes started and I was more occupied with campus events, everything became a lot simpler. The city is friendly although it can also be very rushed at times so keep an open mind and join a campus activity or a part-time job that you'd enjoy. Overall, I am satisfied with the course, university and the country.

M.I.S. Urban Studies - Batch of 2027

It has been an interesting and unique experience.

Tips: I have experienced a lot of changes in myself during my experience studying at this university. It can feel overwhelming at the start as there are a lot of students throughout campus and the classes are competitive as well. There are events that take place but they are not advertised as much so you'll have better luck exploring outside campus or being more involved. Aside from nightlife, the city has a lot to offer. It has been a unique and decent experience.

It has been a dynamic and unique experience.

Tips: I was nervous about my experience at Georgia State University because I had never lived this far from home. However, it only took me a semester to settle in comfortably. There are a lot of exciting events and places to go around campus, which is probably due to its location and accessibility. A good way to connect with fellow students is to join campus groups and organizations and explore nearby attractions.

Grateful for the opportunity to study at Georgia State University.

Tips: Studying here has taught me a lot about myself and helped me develop many essential skills as well. The scope of internships and job placements are limited as I am pursuing sociology which has limited marketable opportunities. The faculty is very dedicated and there is immense scope for research and other such projects as well. Overall, I am satisfied wth the country, course and the university.
