Friendly, safe and fun campus.
Tips: I have learnt how to be more confident and self motivated to get through here. Academics are taken seriously and you'll have to learn how to navigate your way throughout. On campus jobs are hard to get but once you have one, it will be easier to maintain. On campus clubs make things more fun and the campus is quite lively and safe overall.

Master of Science in Information Technology - Batch of 2026

Safe and student-friendly.
Tips: If you're in a programme similar to mine and you're expecting more hardcore coding related aspects, you'll have to upskill yourself as my programme is flexible and interdisciplinary but doesn't consist of as much coding as one might expect. Academic advisors and my professors have been helpful whenever needed but plan it out early to avoid last minute clashes and delays. Very safe and student friendly as well and I would love to stay if I find a role aligned with data or UX.

Grateful for the opportunity.
Tips: The campus is vast and the classrooms are modern and spacious where it is easier to interact as well. People are genuinely helpful and friendly which made things a little easier. You'll have to learn to stick to a budget and meal prep like a pro. Part time work is limited on campus but is manageable if you get one.

Good and fun college with vibrant student life.
Tips: There's no cultural shift. There may be scholarships but not directly available through the university but you can always get part-time as a TA or an RA if you wanna consider that a scholarship. Everything seems fine enough, the prices aren't too high and it's livable.

Good for learning and growth.
Tips: The campus has almost always been vibrant even during holidays when most leave. It took me a while to adjust to the informal atmosphere in classes such as calling professors by their first names, etc. My course is more interesting than I had thought and my peers are very friendly as well. Tuition is comparatively better than in a lot of places.
