MS in Biochemistry - Batch of 2026
Offered by Texas State University
3.4
Good experience with lots of learnings.
Tips: Texas is a very widespread campus with diverse students and faculty and you'll not take too long to adjust. People are easy going and classes are experiential with multi faceted conversations forming a central theme. In terms of post graduation work opportunities, things are becoming increasingly restrictive, but if you form good connections with your professors, you can avail benefits in the form of LORs and projects and even use them as references.

Life in Texas State University.
Tips: You should be prepared to be in the midst of a lot of activity and hustle and bustle, as this is a very happening campus. There are people from all parts of the world, so keep your interactions culturally aware and mindful. Classes are not easy going and a lot of independent thinking will be required out of the textbooks. The job market is increasingly competitive and applications start months in advance.

Masters in Accounting (M.ACY.) - Batch of 2026
Offered by Texas State University
3.4
Been a learning process.
Tips: My transition was gradual, and all my inhibitions and worries disappeared quite quickly after being on campus for at least two to three weeks. The campus is full of life and quite outdoorsy as well, so if you have wished to pick up a sport, you have the perfect opportunity to do so here. Rent is more reasonable here compared to a lot of other cities, and in class grading is subject to various parameters, not simply your performance on exams. This also depends on your classes and professors and what their basis of grading is.

Highly educated and qualified faculty.
Tips: Everything here is truly an experience, and courses are very research-oriented. Networking opportunities and practical exposure are a big plus, and the community is very student-oriented. A lot of Indians are around as well. The job scenario is very unpredictable right now, and a lot of people are returning home.

Texas State University is a very social and buzz-filled campus.
Tips: My first year passed by quite swiftly, and the level of competition and dedication required has also increased quite a bit. Texas State is a very social and buzz-filled campus with plenty going on at all times. We can't work part-time, but professors offer research-related work. The weather is the same throughout, and there are a lot of South Asian people as well.
