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.

Not worthy but fascinating
Tips: NYU gives out scholarships if you have a good UG GPA. Personally, the transition worked out for me, talking about cultural shifts I would say that ain't big of an issue. Overall I'd say I am more than satisfied with my decision to pursue a masters not exclusively academic but decent.
Likes (Public transportation): New York has the best public transport. The subway which functions round the clock, and public buses as well are very well connected and easily navigable. Connectivity to surrounding cities is good as well you could reach Jersey in 10 minutes. The costs as well don't cut that deep into the pocket

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.

Great opportunities and a great campus with good faculty.
Tips: I got a lot of exposure and was able to meet fellow students from all across the world as I was also a part of the cultural exchange club which helped facilitate this interaction. This contribute to building my personality and leaving me more prepared for the workforce after college as well. The faculty is great and understanding and will help you out regarding any problem or difficulties you face.

Great experience in the greatest city.
Tips: New York is a difficult city to live in and demands much out of you on a daily basis, if you cannot deal with that NYU is not for you. There is a huge cultural shift but depending on how much you are able to embrace the energy in NY, you will be able to adjust well. I did not need a scholarship so unsure how that works. I was very satisfied with my college experience.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The professors were exceptional and at the forefront of their fields. The classes were interesting, and some of the professors had incredible teaching methods. The faculty was very diverse, and some were very approachable and easy to converse with, while others were not so much.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I gave NYU a low rating for permanent immigration options because it's incredibly difficult to immigrate to the United States. The visa process is a lottery system, and it's not easy to get lucky. I never even tried to get a visa because I wasn't interested in staying in the United States long-term.
