M.A.S in Data Science - Batch of 2023
4.1
Best cities to live in. The faculty help in networking.
Tips: For students moving here there will be a cultural shift for sure. It is smart to get referrals for on-campus jobs, as they are limited. Try staying Bridgeport area, as it is affordable and safe. Chicago is one of the best cities in the US, you will get to a lot of networking events outside the university which can help you in many ways.

M.S in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering - Batch of 2021
3.2
One of the most Amazing Experiences.
Tips: There's definitely a cultural shift. I personally loved the new country/city/university challenge and was up for all the tasks ahead. Find good friends/roommates who will guide you and help you in your transition. Don't hesitate to change your accommodation if not suitable for your academic preference. I didn't avail of any scholarships because I wasn't aware of any. There are different undergrad and graduate school scholarships available so do your research. I can say that I am somewhat satisfied with the course/university. Definitely would have liked a cheaper college but I suppose I did the best I could with the scores. Chicago is a beautiful city. The summers are short but pleasant, winters are long and the city is covered in snow for almost 3 months so definitely extreme weather conditions will take some time to get used to but it is undeniably beautiful. Some parts of the city are not safe and generally, you will be aware of those with research. Try to avoid those areas and don't wander alone at night. Everything will be great. Good luck to whoever reading this for your future.
Likes (Public transportation): Chicago has one of the best public transportation systems with frequent trains and buses even during night times. It is super affordable as semester passes are generally provided by the university as part of your tuition fees. Public transportation runs in all weather (even in heavy snow and rain).
Dislikes (Part time work): On campus part time jobs are available but very limited. Usually, you get them through connections. 100s apply but a chosen few are selected. Very much depends on the particular facility you are applying for. Personally, I applied but never got any. It is definitely manageable. Sometimes you will have to do weekend shifts or work late at night but the campus provides late-night drop offs. Pay is generally minimum wage in the state (usually $12/hr - $14/hr).

Many Indian students are present in the campus.
Tips: In college, maximum number of students in ITM and CS branches are Indian only. So there was no cultural shift that I experienced. Initially, you may feel some changes and that's all. But after 2-3 weeks it will be the same. One should just focus on GRE and SOPs.

US has its drawbacks too. Think carefully
Tips: Be prepared for a new life. College doesn’t matter. Personality matters. If you are smart you will get a job at Google and if not you will end up back in India wasting your money. So think carefully about the courses you are taking and the people you are hanging out with.

M.S Technical Communication and Information Architecture - Batch of 2025

Great faculty and a diverse student life.
Tips: Students will know all of the clubs and opportunities. The university has strong connections that help its students. The faculty and students are also so supportive of each other. They have some standout teachers who have been involved with their students and have helped them grow professionally. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experience.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I like the college because there is no sexism or racism there. The college has many clubs, which allow students to interact with other departments. The college is also recognised for its research, as well as the importance of collaboration and communication between individuals and organisations in the workplace.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The faculty provides good orientation, which helps students to know about the career opportunities. I hope everyone will find good opportunities in tech with engineering skills and experience to help them achieve their goals and achieve their dreams.

The IIT Chicago acceptance rate stands at about 55%, meaning that out of every 100 students who apply to the university's admission criteria around 55 are likely to be offered the opportunity to enroll at the university's campus grounds. Thus, the admission criteria are moderately selective.

Yes. The university is home to 60% of international graduate students and 17% international undergraduate students who represent about 117 different nationalities. With a promise of an inclusive campus life, its definitely a good choice for Indian students.
