University of Florida- A good school that could be made a lot better

Tips: Cultural shift for sure at the beginning, as for any new country but once it settles in, it should be fine. My course department doesn't offer any scholarships but the engineering department does offer scholarships. It was based on the GRE/GMAT score and almost everyone in engineering, especially international students, got a scholarship.

Likes (Indian Food): There are quite a few indian restaurant options nearby and grocery shops. There is a good network of buses across the campus. It's pretty easy to find familiar ingredients, snacks and ready to eat items and cooking at home is quite convenient too. There is no need for a car in a city like Gainesville, as it has good buses.

Dislikes (Value for money): I don't feel the tuition fee for this course is justified. Studying in the US is expensive and when I look back at everything, I don't feel like I got enough out of the programme to match the level of investment I made. Not that the course was bad it did cover relevant topics and there were moments where I learned useful things but the value didn't match the price tag.

A fun loving college town with decent amount of things to do and many students.

Tips: I would say keep your mind open. If you are coming from a tier 1 city in India, this city will definitely feel like a village. But the people are very fun loving and sporty. It's a party place. Engineering school provide scholarships but not business school.

Likes (Safety): This is the safest city in the USA. I have been to many bigger cities but they all have a lot of stray and homeless population which is very dangerous unlike in Gainesville. In Gainesville, you will find mostly local students, international students and very old people.

Dislikes (Value for money): I would say for business school, it's not too much but if we are talking only about this particular degree, then I don't think it's worth it. One should consider either a more technical degree, like an MS in Computer Science or a pure MBA for more management related roles.

Amazing experience. Great place and a good place to enhance your career.

Tips: Have your goal decided before you come here! Get some good experience, at least 4-5 years in your domain, and be ready to face failure. There will be days when you'll feel alone, but if you ignore that and keep going you will get the rewards in the end.

Likes (Student Life): The University of Florida Gainesville campus blends historic architecture with modern facilities with lively student hubs top notch research athletic pride at the swamp. It's a beautiful experience and a pretty good environment for a person to study and shine.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Because of the current rules and regulations, it's getting tougher to get settled here everyday. As the new rules come by nothing is certain so you have to have a strong heart and a great will to come here and do the hard work that is required, and then you'll get the success.

Not UF but US has brought a change in me.

Tips: Nothing UF has done specifically but coming to the US has made me much more independent, managing my own finances, balancing part-time work with studies and socializing at the same time. It's also helped me develop a more open-minded perspective and appreciation for people of different cultures.

Likes (Value for money): The tuition fees are quite affordable compared to many other universities, and students from this programme often land good jobs after graduation. UF is also a target school for companies like Amazon, so many students get hired there, which makes the tuition feel well worth it.

Dislikes (Internships): The job market was tough during my time and very few students were able to get internships and the career fair were basically useless as for every other university because they want students who they don't have to sponsor so basically students with a green card or citizenship. If by luck your experience in India aligns with that of any one of the projects those companies are working for, only then will you get an internship. Go to Shell Hack Hackathon and GHC that is how two friends of mine got an internship.

The university is very good and placed as top 1 public university in nation as per 2025.

Tips: Everything is good apart from academics. Good culture, good atmosphere, sports etc. I refer juniors to join. Good university and less tuition fees and easily anyone can sustain. The course, country and university are very cool and calm, so that every student can achieve their career goals

Dislikes (Internships): There are less opportunities for students to get internships in the present situation. Students have to search for their own in job portals like LinkedIn, the official pages of companies. Every student who comes to study abroad should apply their own to jobs, the college is not responsible for that.

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.
