Good academic environment.

Tips: Good campus with friendly and hospitable people. The city is also quite student friendly and peaceful. Nightlife is not the craziest compared to some other schools. The good thing is that the campus takes its security very seriously and the classroom environment is overall quite positive and enriching. The chance of immigrating here is quite low and unpredictable as the process is very uncertain and takes a long period of time.

Interesting student experience.

Tips: I had given myself a certain amount of time to get used to the city and settle into my classes which helped my transition. There are good checklists available to let you know what to carry especially when it comes to essentials and documents. Chapel Hill is a very student friendly place but try to wrap up your work before it's too late in the night, as it can get a little too silent.

Likes (Safety): I've personally felt quite safe on campus both in daylight and even when it's dark. There are a lot of people at all times and lots of lighting as well. Patrols also happen regularly and people watch out for each other which feels quite reassuring.

Fun yet fulfilling so far.

Tips: The courses here are challenging but informative. A lot of the popular classes fill up really fast so you'll have to be very prompt with course registration. Mail your professors and university services whenever you're in a fix, you're bound to get some help. Plenty of fellow Indian students as well. Lots of events on campus every now and then, especially sports and games.

Go Niners! A new experience.

Tips: Being more punctual, aligning my schedule properly. Nothing much of cultural shift. I did not get any scholarships. But there are few which you need to continuously monitor. I am completely satisfied with my university, course as it gives a lot of scope both academically and personally.

Likes (Indian Food): There are many Indian cuisine restaurants nearby and the pricing varies for different items and most probably each items cost could be between $1 to $20. There are other cuisines available too. I personally prefer cooking by myself, with friends and rarely at restaurants.

Dislikes (Internships): It depends on how much networking you do, and how actively you interact with people and recruiters. It is a bit difficult process but once you start into it, it's a learning, you will learn day by day. Yes, there are internships relevant to my field of study.

Its a great place for academic and to learn about various cultures.

Tips: The university does not provide any scholarships. I heard very rarely about someone getting a scholarship. Even if you get any Teaching/Research Assistantships also, compared with most of the universities you will not get any fee waiver. The faculty are very helpful and you can reach out to them anytime. The seniors are really friendly and host many events for us. I am overall satisfied with the university because of its wide variety of opportunities to learn.
