My college experience has been a great one. The faculty are nice and always ready to help.
Tips: Since I live and commute from outside off campus, the traffic and time can be a bit overwhelming. It does make me feel like I am missing out on a lot going on on campus. To compensate, I have joined some of the clubs that help me feel involved and engaged. Engage with your peers and enrol in outside-of-classroom programs to experience true learning.

Responsible place to learn and grow.
Tips: The diversity is commendable and you're sure to find your tribe. There are a number of mental health resources that have been helpful for me and you can take advantage of these as they respect your autonomy and have truly been helpful. I have also observed that our classes focus on social responsibility along with core courses which certainly has impacted the campus in a good way. Moreover, they are strict and responsible for student wellbeing and safety.

Very thankful for the opportunity here.
Tips: I have liked the accommodation and university quite a bit so far but I feel there could have been more options for meal plans especially as I am a vegetarian and it can become tricky to find more options. There are a lot of inter-college games that keep happening and is fun to look forward to. Sign up for a variety of different courses so you can get an organic experience. Overall, I am quite content with my experiences.

Had a great time throughout with great people.
Tips: One of the key reasons why I have joined Santa Clara University is because of the freedom I get to experiment and explore my passion such as the environment by joining the environment club. There are a lot of environment drives and campaigns and you will get a variety of networking opportunities through activities such as this. The faculty here are very helpful, and interactive and will suggest and guide you to take part in several activities to grow. Overall, I am happy with my experience.

The college is great, faculty members are really helpful and a great student life.
Tips: I have had a great experience here so far, although I did not avail of any scholarships. There are student services to help you navigate through potential financial aid and internship options, so please take advantage of that. The faculty is very understanding and friendly. Public transportation is affordable and available at any time. Other than this, I would say I'm very satisfied with everything here so far.
