The university helps you to grow and be independent.
Tips: Here at Northeastern, we can explore diverse cultures, and there are many ongoing meetups and cultural activities. Not only do these activities pique our interest, but they also help expand our mindset and create networking opportunities. Northeastern University has a co-op panel that will teach you how to build your profile, how to network, and how to choose the correct career path. The school has a vast amount of opportunities and operations with some of the best networks in the United States, so you will have no shortage of internship opportunities if that's what you're looking for. I have availed scholarship and am quite satisfied with the college.
Dislikes (Value for money): In comparison to other universities, the same course would be around 25 Lacs, but here, it would be 50-75 Lacs, including all expenses and tuition feels. Boston has a high cost of living, which also needs to be taken into account.

Northeastern is place we can expose our strengths and prove what we are to the society.
Tips: I learned different cultures being here which made me enjoy college life. I didn't get any scholarships, my fees was paid by my family funds and some with the money I got from on campus job. The course is good and I am satisfied. I feel good about the country and atmosphere here.
Likes (Public transportation): Boston is good at public transport where we can reach every corner of the city with public transport. Our campus has line and green line connectivity which helps us reach campus on time safely. Also, we have multiple bus routes which connect the city.
Dislikes (Student Life): I spend most of my morning in college with friends, like attending classes, and playing TT. I participate in cultural activities and events. I was in RSO community where I used to safeguard my campus and this I do as my on-campus job. I was in a club at Curry Center.

Research driven university. A complete package.
Tips: I haven't received any scholarship because it is not that easy to get one so if you plan to get it, try hard. It's suggested if you have any prior experience with the course then it will be easy to understand and would be easy to cope up with the curriculum. It is important to look into the various research and academic profile of the university.
Likes (Student Life): Students are nice and there are a lot of sources to learn from available at the university. The class pattern is quite flexible here as you will get ample time to explore other facilities of the university. In this university, the main attraction is the student library which is the main source where you can get a lot of material to enhance your knowledge. It does have a community for the students as the NU Sanskriti.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time jobs are hard to get if you have one you need to apply quite early before the course starts for the fall sessions. There are lots of opportunities to work that you have to search and look for the best option. If you are registered with a lot of classes in a week and you have a job on the campus just try to manage. Focus more on studies because that is the aim for which you would be here.

Northeastern university is great with quality of students, life, and different cultures.
Tips: Students should know about the course which they are going to choose. Keep in mind you have to work hard because USA is a fast country so we have to manage all things in a good way. Another thing is you do not have to be depressed with your inner thoughts. Work hard, and later on, you will get all things easily.
Likes (Part time work): You will get part time work(on campus) in the university by applying through their websites. It is very easy to get a job so not to worry about the jobs, definitely you will get it. USA will not offer any off campus jobs for students. So try to get on-campus jobs.
Dislikes (Indian Food): It's USA so we can not get much food like our country. But there are many shops and restaurants which offer good food and grocery. Another thing is that the prices of food and vegetables are so high it does not make any sense.

Wonderful career opportunities.
Tips: One should know how to explore various networking opportunities. Any international student should be ready to mingle with people and develop friendship, irrespective of nationality, and try to establish a circle in which he/she can learn, create memories and also explore career opportunities.
Likes (Student Life): Often events and celebrations for Diwali, Shankara, Buddha purnima, holi, etc. are organized and students get a chance to meet and network with fellow students. These events also provide a platform for students to exhibit their skills like dancing, singing, etc.
Dislikes (Part time work): Professors work as directors and CEOs of startups and product management departments in multiple well established organizations which help us understand the present market. This knowledge helps an individual to develop their skill set and hit the right spot to secure a wonderful career.
