NYUAD: A Chef's Salad An American Institute in the middleast

Tips: If you are not used to being in a diverse environment, the transition to NYUAD could be difficult. However, it is a very friendly campus with a zero-discrimination policy. For Indians, it is not very difficult to adjust because there's a large Indian community on campus. There are options to get a fully-funded education that covers everything and I got one. Your admission application process is through a common app, and if you want a fully-funded education, you can also submit a college board application. FAFSA will review it, and the university will provide you with financial aid accordingly.

Likes (Post study jobs): Post-study jobs depend on your field of study. STEM fields have more demand here but there are also companies who want individuals who have expertise in inter-disciplinary learning. There is definitely some scope but graduation from NYUAD gives me an edge while applying for jobs abroad as well. There is a 95% employment rate.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UAE only gives you sponsorship visas and you cannot attain citizenship here. However, there are options to get a Golden Visa for 10 years with your academic excellence. If you complete a degree from the world's top 100 universities, you will get a golden visa. I personally enjoy living in the Emirates because it feels nothing less than India.

Had a wonderful grad school experience at NYU.

Tips: I attended New York University and had a wonderful experience. I was awarded a scholarship of 9K USD for the entire two years. I had an undergrad GPA of 3.8/4.0, which is the reason I was chosen for this scholarship award. If you are considering studying in New York, NYU is a good choice. The faculty is very supportive and will help you significantly during your course.

Very rigorous but worthwhile.

Tips: Studying here has been like a dream for me, but it is really expensive, so you should plan financially or apply for a scholarship. The university career services are quite useful and helpful as well, so you should start early. Take advantage of all available campus resources. If you are stuck in a lesson, peer tutoring can be quite helpful.

The university and the faculty helps you to improve and make the best version of yourself.

Tips: Students should know that there will be many cultural shifts, but you will find lots of Indians so it will be good. I got a scholarship so it helps with the expenses. Professors have great knowledge, and the way they teach is unique. Assignments are very unique you will learn a lot from them and be industry-ready. Overall, I am satisfied with my course.

Strong academics and intense course-work.

Tips: Be ready for intense coursework as the vibe is competitive to the point, it can be tricky to stand out. My days last up to like ten hours at a time but it does pay off. Keep a positive outlook and engage with both your peers and professors. There's an inside grocery store with an eatery quite near campus.
