Great place to be independent and grow.

Tips: Syracuse has a very liberal mindset, and there are people from all over the country and the world, including Indians. Plenty of Indian food options and restaurants, as well as other cuisines. Rent is on the higher side and the vibe is very fast paced. You are expected to take care of yourself here.

The campus culture is vibrant and happening with lots of fraternities and sororities.

Tips: I found the university quite promising yet overwhelming at first, but once I got into the flow of things, I really started seeing Syracuse for what it is. If you are planning, come after your undergrad is complete, as that will make more sense. Moreover, the campus culture is vibrant and happening with lots of fraternities and sororities. Networking potential as well.

There is a lot of potential to grow here.

Tips: Syracuse gives you a look into what you've always imagined university life to be like. There are tons of things to do and explore both on and off campus, and you can get the best of New York by studying here. Join as many peer groups as you can and attend office hours so your professors recognise you. The cost of living is high, so try to budget carefully.

Master of Science in Computer Engineering - Batch of 2026

Promising place to learn.

Tips: I have transitioned into a more confident, aware, and independent individual after a lot of adjustment. The city is welcoming and filled with passionate and creative people. I found it helpful to socialise by attending mixers and joining study groups and clubs that aligned with my interests or where I learned something new. Waterproof shoes have been a very useful hack because of the weather.

Likes (Indian Food): The city's diversity, especially the large Indian population, means there are plenty of restaurants and food joints offering various cuisines, not just North Indian. While some cooking essentials are a bit pricey, everything is readily available and close to campus.

MS in Entrepreneurship & Emerging Enterprises - Batch of 2024

Offered by Syracuse University

Syracuse University is excellent for STEM and data science majors.

Tips: Syracuse is great for STEM-related and data science majors. My program can be intense as it is project-heavy, but it's very relevant to the industry. The engineering and business schools also interlink on several occasions, mainly for projects, which help in providing a diverse point of view. Carry spices from India, as you'll get the same stuff quite overpriced here.
