Good place for growth.
Tips: Santa Clara provides a balance of academics and ethics along the way. You can learn a lot if you are proactive and my experience included learning outside of classrooms as well. People are friendly and politically correct so you'll have to be respectful as well. Good place for those interested in technical fields although the job scenario is unpredictable. A lot of independence is expected from students as well but part time jobs on campus are limited so be quick to act if you're interested.

Enriching experience here.
Tips: Very supportive environment and everyone plays a role in your education here. The city is quite safe and peaceful with plenty of Indian restaurants and items available but the rent near campus can be a bit much. Not worth coming without a scholarship or work possibilities.
Likes (Safety): I've never really had to worry too much about safety while on campus. The space is enclosed and there's an app for emergencies and alerts. The campus shuttle also works till late and I've spent hours in the library and left at 1 am absolutely fine and safe.

Great student life in California.
Tips: The lessons and teaching style were very different from what I was used to. Here the interaction is way more multifaceted and assignments expect a lot of originality and creativity especially if you are pursuing a liberal arts degree. The weather is slightly dry but beautiful almost all year long and the Indian student community is very strong and present. Keep an eye out for deadline and campus events.

Great place to grow as a person.
Tips: Coursework here is challenging and heavily application based. The learning environment is supportive and engaging and you're expected to think out of the box. The best thing about SCU is the location as you're right in the hub of teach. Cost of rent and living is quite high so consider coming if you have strong internship or job prospects here.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Great professors and very involved faculty. I have greatly enjoyed my lessons and learnt way more than I had anticipated because of them and what I like the most is that they bring very real and relevant experience to the table which helps in giving us a real image of what to expect after university.

Good for STEM exposure.
Tips: Santa Clara has a very widespread student community and there are students from all over the country and the world giving you a very wide perspective on things. I got a scholarship based on merit and that helped cover some part of the tuition which can otherwise be a little expensive. Placements can be tricky but being near Silicon Valley can be a huge asset.
