The cost of living is high and part-time job pay system is messed up.
Tips: This is a very costly college and they are very strict about academics. You have to spend at least 50-60L for graduation here. Apart from that, it is a fine college. The neighbourhood is very costly, with high competition for part-time jobs. 80% of the time you can't speak English.
Likes (Indian Food): I like the pizza on campus. It is delicious and affordable. There's also some sushi, but that's about it for food options on campus. There are some nice restaurants in Jersey City, but most of them are Gujarati, so the food is bland or sweet. Good south Indian food is hard to come by.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The college doesn't have many on-campus recruitment opportunities. After graduation, you're on your own to find a job. Newark and New Jersey are places where you can find work, but there's a lot of competition for part-time jobs. The areas are expensive, and the college is expensive.

Extremely enthusiastic experience.
Tips: Personality was developed, new learnings were attained, and cultural development occurred here. Management is very helpful, and faculty members are always available to help and support you in the projects and assessments given by them without any partiality.
Likes (Indian Food): Playing games with my classmates and sometimes going for nightouts and playing football, doing extracurricular activities, making new recipes, and always asking my foreign friends to try some new indian cuisine. I was in the music club as a pianist.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Experience was great, and valuable learning was given by my faculty members. They always promoted and inculcated the josh type feeling among all the students and ensured that none of the students lag behind in their academics. They also promoted us in the play.

Overall this college is a good choice.
Tips: Before joining one should check how financially strong they are and also depends on one's area of interest and aim in their life. But on overall basis it is the best college. People nearby are mostly Indians and especially from Telugu states hence it will be good choice for women if they are having any safety concerns.

The Indian Community at NJIT is amazing and very diverse.
Tips: I believe there's not much that students must know before coming here. The college handles everything really well, and you get accustomed to the university really quickly. You will only have to worry about your academics, and apart from that, it's just a hill time at NJIT. The faculty is helpful. You can reach out to them in case of any doubts or queries.
Likes (Safety): Safety is not much of a concern at NJIT. The campus is pretty safe for students, and people take care of each other very well. Although I didn't have many safety issues at NJIT, I've heard stories. Overall, I'd say there's not much to worry about if you're with the right people and take care of yourself.
Dislikes (Student Life): Student life at New Jersey Institute of Technology is quite decent. People are cool here, and they are very helpful. The Indian Community at NJIT is amazing and very diverse. There are a lot of events that one can attend, so you can learn new things and move forward.
