Full Time MBA Program - Batch of 2027

4.5

Excellent School, best on ROI.

Tips: The college offers great infrastructure, interesting subjects and excellent faculty but the student needs to be motivated to make the most of the opportunities provided to them. It requires the ability to prioritize and focus. I received merit based scholarship.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): Post degree, Seattle has great potential to find employment. There are clear immigration and settlement pathways that you can pursue. OPT and H1B visa opportunities are going to be linked to employment and compensation going forward and the prospects for both is good here.

Dislikes (Part time work): I rated 4/5 because roles are available but competitive. Roles like teaching assistant, research assistant, library assistant and grades are common but there are a lot of candidates and students who are applying to those roles because they are well paying.

Master of Science in Data Science - Batch of 2024

3.3

Fun but costly learning journey.

Tips: Seattle is a great place, but plan your finances properly. I didn't get any scholarship but I worked part-time and I got that through referral. Have to do a lot of self-studying, in some courses, there was less support from the TAs, but experience was great.

Likes (Student Life): The campus had a great gym, ocean view, bowling alley. The stadium was also near the sea so we went kayaking and swimming. A lot of trips were also organised by the Foreign student groups. UW also organises bi monthly meetups with seniors where we can interact with them and learn, and sometimes dinner is also offered.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): When I graduated, there were very few Data Science jobs in Seattle, many companies didn't provide relocation support, and most needed Java skills or were only offering W2 roles. These roles in Seattle were limited, most moved to California or the West Coast. H1B sponsor jobs were very less. I would suggest at least trying to get an internship within the first quarter, before December starts, so that you can try to convert your internship company offer to full time.

Master of Science in Human Centered Design & Engineering - Batch of 2027

4.4

An inclusive diverse and an academically rich college.

Tips: The campus events make the transition easy. I would suggest everyone try the design courses here as it's extremely well blended with research and tech as well.

Likes (Value for money): It gives a lot of great opportunities while you study here to connect with research out talk to mentors and seniors and so much more. It has events all the time to interact with industry experts and the college is very well known in the state of United States.

Dislikes (Safety): The safety at night can become a little risky. Especially if you are walking back alone at night and considering most Master's courses are in the second half and late at night you need a group to come back with. As an Indian, even racism is prevalent to a certain degree.

Master of Science in Information Systems - Batch of 2025

4.1

Good course structure. Public transportation is easy to access.

Tips: Culture is definitely present, however, it's great that people are punctual and they respect others a lot. They love to engage in small talk, which is sometimes fun. I did not avail of any scholarships because they don't provide those to international students. I am very satisfied with the university, the course is good only, the country is also good as far as I've known.

Likes (Public transportation): Seattle campus has great public transport, may it be the bus system or the underground metro. It's absolutely easy to travel around however it does take time.

Dislikes (Internships): I believe the career fair provided by the university are okay-ish and may not be that relevant to the opportunities I am looking for. However, considering the market is very bad right now, I probably can't blame them for the same. They also have career services like resume review and writing guidance which is good.

MS in Computer Science & Engineering - Batch of 2025

4.0

Great exposure for international students.

Tips: It is a commuter college mostly. On-campus jobs are moderately available and it's an amazing opportunity of exposure too. International students have multiple opportunities to socialize and network with the help of the events organized. Student groups are active too.

Dislikes (Safety): The campus and on-campus housing are safe. But the locations around are not as safe. The campus security ensures safety in the nearby locations and is available 24/7. They are accessible too. In general, weekdays are comparatively safer compared to weekends.
