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.

Good people and vibrant campus.

Tips: The first thing I noticed was how huge the campus is. I even had to use Google Maps to navigate it at times. I thought getting a bike would be a smart way to go. It seems like people here take networking and career events very seriously, so I suggest prepping your resume in advance. If you can make it in time for orientation, that's great, but if not, you'll get accustomed soon enough.

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.

The culture is friendly, and people are direct but polite.

Tips: I have seen a lot of changes in myself throughout my time here, mostly positive. The culture is friendly, and people are direct but polite. I did not get any scholarships, but the classes are well planned, and you're taught everything from Python engineering to SQL and more. I am very satisfied studying here, although the job scenario is getting more unpredictable by the way.
