Networking on-campus is beneficial.

Tips: One should get prepared for great academic transition. Before taking any courses know the professors who will teach those subjects. You can fins the subject professors online and maybe get in touch. Some professors are very strict and fail students randomly. Also, get in touch with as many students as possible to expand your knowledge.

Networking is important for a good university experience

Tips: The most important thing is to make sure to grasp the academic setting in a foreign country. Get ready for a change in culture too.

Also, try connecting with fellow students it makes learning more enjoyable and helps you understand things better.

Supportive environment with strong academic focus and affordable.

Tips: Students should be aware of the strong academic support, experienced faculty, and diverse opportunities available. However, they should also prepare for a rigorous workload, actively utilise campus resources, and engage in networking to fully benefit from their time here.

Likes (Public transportation): It is reliable, free, well-connected, and efficient, offering easy access to major areas, reducing the need for a personal vehicle, and supporting sustainable urban mobility. Buses run frequently until midnight and start early in the morning.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Limited opportunities exist in my field, along with visa restrictions and unclear pathways to long-term employment after graduation, making it less favourable compared to other countries. As a current student, I lack clarity on this matter.
