Costly to study but college is good.
Tips: College is good but the fee is too much I think. The fee is a big problem to study here. Compared to other colleges, the fee is double. For one semester fee here we will complete an entire course in other colleges. University location is good and faculty is okay and the food is not good for Indians.

Great learning, great campus, great mix of students and supportive faculty
Tips: It was a great learning experience. You get to meet students from different countries. Work on real projects and capstone. It is a fast-paced schedule and is good for working professionals. Scholarships are available based on your academic performance. New York is the city of dreams, one of the best places to study.
Likes (Safety): Very good location and good crowd. Everyone is supportive. This is a lively place with good food. Many public transportation are available. Insurance and good healthcare are available. Indian stores and malls are close by to Indian neighbourhood. Malls are close by for day-to-day shopping. Laundromat available.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Recession market causes difficult times post covid. Many companies look for US experience in your resume. Not all companies agree to sponsor h1 Visa. Cracking interviews is difficult. You have to apply to a lot of companies with no direct placements. But data Analytics has a good future and job market.

The transportation in the area is good and affordable but the country is overrated.
Tips: There is definitely culture shock, and there are some Indian roommates who can help to overcome it. If you have a good GPA, you can be eligible to get a scholarship, but my university doesn't offer any. This country is overrated, and the facilities are not that good.
Likes (Public transportation): The transportation in the area is good and affordable. Both bus stops and the subway/path station are nearby. Cabs, taxis, and Uber rides, on the other hand, are very expensive. Fortunately, there's a metro station right next to the university, so I can easily get to attractions like the Brooklyn Bridge, which is 10 to 15 minutes away.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are no good options for vegetarians. It's best to cook your own meals. There are some affordable Indian restaurants with entrees in the $10 to $15 price range. My top choices are Southern Spice and Biryani Pot. For evening snacks, I recommend Sapthagiri and Vatan.

Good college, I had a nice experience.
Tips: You need to know the course curriculum before joining the course. You can do part-time on campus and you need to search for that. No scholarships are given by the college. I was satisfied with my college and course as it offered what was promised. Professors are good and helpful they provide all the materials required.

Apply now and experience the quality education that LIU has to offer at an affordable price.
Tips: Prepare for TOEFL/IELTS/GRE/GMAT, whichever is required. Part time opportunities are good here and one can benefit from this during their time. The education quality is best here so make sure you get the most of it.
Likes (Post study jobs): LIU best education offers innovative learning, combining the best of classroom teaching and online education. With a friendly faculty and access to multiple internships, students from LIU are well-posted to secure the best jobs. From career prospects to educational resources, LIU best education is the perfect place to pursue your passions and equip yourself with the skills you need to succeed.
Dislikes (Part time work): I am glad to write that LIU part-time offers students a unique opportunity to work hard and compete on their own terms. With lots of commute options and a wide range of jobs to choose from, you can easily find something that fits your schedule. It's the perfect way to earn while you study.

Great college and very helpful for the future career support.
Tips: One should know about Long Island University, Brooklyn campus is that this college is very liberal when it comes to academics and very helpful for the subjective part. But for the on-campus jobs, I never got a chance to grab one. Not just me even my super seniors didn’t get any chance.
Likes (Post study jobs): I rated 5 star for the post study jobs because particularly my branch got plenty of opportunities out there in USA. Being from a physical therapy background I've got great openings and a future here in the USA. Also great support from the country as we were in the medical background
Dislikes (Part time work): Long Island University deserves only 1 star rating for the part time jobs. Because it doesn’t release any part time on campus jobs for any of the international students. Almost every job mentioned on their website is only for US citizens.
