Good college to study and have fun and a bit expensive at the same time.

Tips: Since the cost of living and fee is a bit higher, it is better to have any graduate assistantship before coming here. You need to contact the professors for that. Initially, we may not get the replies. But mailing them frequently could get us an assistantship with which the full fee is waived off.

Likes (Part time work): There is a good chance for students to get part time jobs here. Most of the students have an on campus job. Most of the students get the assistantships because the funding of the college is pretty good. There is a good chance to get a part time job in any of the departments.

Dislikes (Public transportation): There is option of buses. We do have an app to track them but the number of buses are less. We do not know when they come and the route is very limited. The public transport is limited only to the town. So, you need to get a cab or take a car for rent to go out of the town.

It is a good university but you’ll find better options at this cost.

Tips: There are assistantships available in the college. Make sure to apply all of the assistantships before coming to the college and email the professors to get the Assistantship. Do a full review on the colleges you want admission in. Then try choosing from them. Do not choose Msu blindly.

Likes (Safety): I’ve never seen a safer place than this because as it is a small city. There is not a huge population, and everywhere you go, you’ll find students from Mississippi state university. There’ll be cop cars all the time. You’ll feel safe even while roaming in the midnight.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Starkville is more like a village than city. There’ll be far less restaurants here. Among them finding an Indian one is impossible. There is a restaurant with Indian cuisine but it is not worth the money. Cooking Indian stuff is the better option but you can’t find Indian stores in 20 miles surroundings.
