Small sized school, good to build connections!

Tips: Academically it is very tough but it is just to make students tough to deal with the industry that they will be going to. I received an academic scholarship of $36000 during my first year. My course curriculum was good and it had everything that was needed. Students can live in a suite or in a tower on-campus. It is recommended to live in dorms only during the first year.

Likes (Safety): It is safe on campus and there is a facility where the school picks up the students if they have missed the bus or train. I would suggest that if you are moving around and going for trips go with a group as it increases the safety and will not make a student counter a situation pertaining to it.

Dislikes (Value for money): This is a small size school and there is a good chance to build lifetime connections plus the diversity adds value to it. Apart from this, there is an option to study diverse subjects which is something every student would look out for. The school also offers scholarships to meritorious students but I would still say that it's a bit overpriced as compared to the value offered by other institutions around.
