Have fun and make the most of it.
Tips: I've had a very positive experience here so far. The campus is welcoming, and the student body is diverse and friendly, especially the South Asian Association, which I was a part of. It's important to take initiative, and if you're interested in Graduate Assistant positions, you'll need to act quickly, as they fill up fast.

Wholesome campus life and good facilities.
Tips: My days tend to start early, and I like to spend time outside of the classroom. There are public transport buses that make commuting to campus much easier, although weekends can be tricky to navigate. I recommend learning to cook your own meals and budgeting.

It’s essential to have a working campus ID to get around campus.
Tips: When I came to Lansing from my hometown it was so much quieter here, but I can keep busy with all the clubs and events on campus. The students do have to stay alert because there are lots of pickpockets and also be prepared to do lots of presentations and projects. I’ve had to learn how to cook now that I’m here.

Michigan State University is mostly research-oriented.
Tips: I have grown to love doing research here, and the faculty is truly helpful if you show initiative. Don't shy away from having fun as well; extracurricular activities look good on the CV. The campus gym is the best thing here if you're keen on working out. I got a merit-based scholarship, which reduced my tuition by 6,700 USD. If you're eligible and confident, go for it.
