Master in Engineering Management - Batch of 2027

4.6

A very welcoming and homely place where you can learn a lot.

Tips: Received a 10% scholarship and a 500 professional development fund to attend conferences and get certificates. Definitely very satisfied with all the learning outcomes. There's also an Indian association that takes care of all Indian students' needs.

Likes (Value for money): The courses are very good. The living expenses of the city of Raleigh are also quite low in comparison to other cities, making it easy to manage expenses while working part time on campus. The tuition is manageable as well and they also waive tuition if you get a TA or RA position.

Dislikes (Internships): There are internships but just the market in general isn't the best right now and for the career fair, only a few companies accept F1 students. Some students who have work experience have got very good internships all around the US and they provide good career guidance services so eventually everyone will definitely get a job.

4.7

A challenging yet very supportive university; good opportunities for future.

Tips: The university is academically rigorous but it helped me a lot to learn new things. There are many resources and mentors for you every step whenever you need help. My transition was smooth, I had even got my finances sorted and even secured a part-time job before arriving in the States. Most international students work part-time jobs here. The university offers scholarships and funding to various departments.

Likes (Public transportation): The university has its own public transportation which is well-connected to all campuses and the housing location that students prefer on or off-campus. The frequency is amazing year around. The public transportation is completely free and very convenient.

Dislikes (Value for money): The fee structure is very manageable compared to most of the Universities. And the university being a public university, has various facilities and resources for international students. The departments have funding and scholarships, even if you want to do a the university funds you for it.

Master of Financial Mathematics - Batch of 2026

Great value-for-money program.

Tips: One of the best courses with a strong curriculum and excellent career support. The Financial Mathematics programme at NC State offers a well-structured and rigorous curriculum. The career services are outstanding and very supportive with good industry exposure and guidance. Tuition is reasonable compared to similar programs and there are multiple scholarship opportunities available. Additionally, there are plenty of on-campus part-time jobs available for students. A great value-for-money programme.

Likes (Value for money): It is one of the best courses with a strong curriculum, excellent career services and reasonable tuition. Being rigorous academically and having excellent career guidance along with great industry exposure with hands-on projects makes this a great value-for-money programme.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Mostly American food options are available at a reasonable price. Indian grocery and food options are not very accessible. I prefer cooking for myself which reduces living expenses by a considerable amount. There is a Feed the Pack free grocery service which you can avail for basic groceries.

Very fulfilling experience.

Tips: The university here is very diverse, and there is plenty of representation on campus. Once you're settled, things move much smoothly and the bus services are free to help you get around. There is an Indian restaurant available, although not as authentic as you might like, but there are plenty of options nearby. I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

MS Aerospace Engineering - Batch of 2025

4.5

Great university for aerospace and Indian students.

Tips: Cultural shock might initially be challenging but the large Indian student population at NC State makes it easy to make friends, which can help ease homesickness. Securing Resident Assistant (RA) or Teaching Assistant (TA) positions is quite competitive so plan accordingly. Finding part-time work is relatively easy; dining jobs offer $10 per hour with a maximum of 20 hours per week, which can cover living expenses if you share a room and budget carefully. Over time you may be able to move into a higher grade or departmental position which is less demanding and offers better pay. Scholarships for Indian nationals are scarce. The university is excellent with a good faculty, well structured coursework and strong research opportunities. Be prepared to dedicate yourself to your studies. The academic approach here differs significantly from Indian universities; cramming won't suffice for good grades. Plan your studies thoroughly
