Medical AI research focused university.
Tips: There are many research opportunities, it's just that you have to look for them. Start building connections with people in the university. University of Florida provides a lot of opportunities for students to grow academically and professionally make sure you take advantage of those.
Likes (Value for money): As compared to other colleges in the US, University of Florida offers cheaper per credit fees as well as the accommodation prices are relatively affordable. We get many daily essentials for free at the university which significantly reduce our monthly consumption cost.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I rated 3 on Permanent immigration/settlement because, while US does offer pathways for permanent residence via employment or further education, but I personally prefer going back to home country to permanently settle there or maybe lookout for opportunities closer to home country.

University of Florida - A boon to sincere students.
Tips: There is a huge cultural difference between USA and India, so everyone needs to be prepared and come with an open mind. Try watching as many videos about the USA as possible so that you are prepared for it all. I got a scholarship of 1500$ per semester. It was given based on merit to the students of our department. There are plenty of resources to study. Professors and their assistants are supportive, and the education system is not that difficult. The return on investment if you get a job is very high at the University of Florida.
Likes (Part time work): There are plenty of part time jobs available on campus. Doing 10-15 hrs a week can easily help manage your monthly expenses along with studies. Any more hours on part time job will affect your studies. The minimum wage currently is 14$ per hour and 1.5$/hr extra if you are working on weekends or after 6PM any day.
Dislikes (Internships): All the internships and jobs are needed to be found off-campus. You need to make connections and apply online to internships. Also, proximity to a tech hub matters a lot in jobs and internships. Gainesville is a small college town and Florida has no major tech hubs. This makes it difficult for students of the University of Florida to find jobs/internships. The available internships are relevant to computer Science, but there is tough competition.

Earn your opportunities at this top public school.
Tips: I had a smooth transition, find friends to hang out otherwise it can get lonely. There is a 4,500 USD Scholarship for all engineers, which is great. I'm satisfied with the college, not so with the country in terms of job prospects. My experience is difficult, which won't change unless I get a job.
Likes (Public transportation): Bus is available to all students free of cost. Multiple bus routes cover the town. Uber and Lyft are also available, and we can get Lyft passes as a student. It is convenient, and the bus connects off campus to the campus.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Many of the seniors graduated without jobs and are struggling to find. However, the market is not great anywhere in the USA. The location of Gainesville is a major disadvantage for small tech companies does not matter for big tech companies. Tough to crack.

University of Florida, Computer Science experience.
Tips: It is a budget friendly college. You can find ways to reduce expenses further via part-time. Finding jobs is purely based on your skill level and not university reputation. But I would suggest UF highly in terms of the ROI because once you find a job, you can pay back the tuition in no time.
Likes (Part time work): Dining part-time is easy to find. They pay roughly 15 dollars hourly. There are other better paying opportunities like working under a professor. That can add to your experience and will pay you better. But most of them are on AI/ML focused. So if you have a good background, you have better chances of getting one.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Campus career fair are limited. Amongst off campus employers, UF is an average college. But you can always upskill and apply for better opportunities. Local companies are the ones who usually show up for career fair. Are the conversion is very less.

Good university with a slight location disadvantage.
Tips: A good number of Indian students are around. 4 to 5 Indian restaurants around. We can rent cars to go to other places. For us, they gave 1500 dollars for 3 semesters per semester so a scholarship of 4500 was offered.
Likes (Value for money): Good education for lesser tuition fee in comparison with other universities. The tuition fee for the course is perfectly justified. For the quality of education that is being provided especially for ECE, this is a good university, minus the location disadvantage.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are enough number of companies, but not a lot of people got placed this year. People got internships, but due to the new rule, there is a slight discrepancy in how people are getting placed. However, people managed to get co ops and internships here and there.

Top tier budget friendly fun and academically oriented university.
Tips: People are really friendly and if you come as a student here then try to reach out more and be more extroverted if you can. There are scholarships for students to have ease in studying and not have to think much about finances.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty members are very friendly and always ready to answer even the basic of questions. Try to keep a fun environment and teach in a way that every student can understand. Varied diversity in terms of nationality. This welcoming culture is powerfully amplified by the university's rich tapestry of global diversity.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The University of Florida earn a strong rating of 4 out of 5 for post study jobs due to its excellent academic reputation, powerful career support services and strong recruitment pipelines, particularly within the state. However, for international students requiring visa sponsorship path is more competitive. The primary challenge is not a lack of opportunity but the specific hurdle of securing employers willing to navigate the H1B visa process. Salary packages are highly competitive, reflecting UF stature as a top public university for example graduates in engineering and computer Science often command starting salaries ranging from $80000 to over $110000 while business and Science graduates can expert packages between $65000 and $85000, with these figure often including valuable benefits and bonuses. Ultimately while a UF degree is a significant assets that open doors to a vast network of leading companies, international student must proactively leveraged career services and target the specific employers with a proven history of sponsorship to successfully launch their US career.
