Masters in Business Administration/Architecture - Batch of 2026

3.7

Great for academics and student life.

Tips: The campus is quite friendly and very academic as well. The course selection is diverse and you can truly learn a lot by simply exploring and attending lectures. Professors are passionate, which helps. I would say there are some areas that can be avoided after sunset as well. Tuition is expensive here.

4.1

A beautiful campus with rigorous research work and wonderful opportunities.

Tips: WashU is a great campus for studying, often regarded as the hidden Ivy or Harvard of the Midwest. But apart from this, it holds a strong position in engineering branches, especially in Biomedical sciences, due to its highly reputed M.Ed campus. This is a great college to pursue higher studies, if you can manage expenses well and get some good internships or part-time jobs, as it's a private university, so it is expensive like other private universities.

Likes (Student Life): WashU's student life offers a lot of opportunities, be it in terms of choice of interesting courses, projects and mentors to work with. Apart from rigorous academics, it has a variety of student clubs, some of which work on serious projects like WashU Racing and the Satellite club. It has a world class play field and recreation centre with a good gym and indoor playground.

Dislikes (Safety): The WashU campus is pretty safe. It has not only campus police but St Louis police patrol around the university. Near campus, there are a lot of emergency phone pillars to reach out for help. But, there are a few areas in St. Louis that are considered unsafe, especially near Delmar Station or beyond Delmar Loop, so it is always advised not to roam alone in dark hours.

Master of Science in Genetic Epidemiology - Batch of 2027

3.6

Good place; highly underrated.

Tips: The semester doesn't really wait for anyone and I was thrust into the middle of classes, assignments and research work from the beginning. This can also be because my programme is one of the most challenging ones and requires consistent research. The facilities are great and so is the reputation. My professors are very wise and the city is friendly and welcoming.

Research and good academic potential.

Tips: You will be expected to give your best as the academic standard here is very high, so if you're passionate about research and academia, this is a good option to consider for your post graduation mainly. Labs are well funded but the cost of tuition can be very high for some so come prepared as it will be a big investment. Accommodation shouldn't be a problem as there are numerous options not too far from campus and the administration is helpful when needed.
