Adapting abroad has been a rewarding journey academically and culturally.

Tips: Students should be prepared for an academic environment that promotes independence critical thinking and research based learning. The transition was challenging at first because of differences in communication and lifestyle but with the support of both my peers and faculty, I adapted quickly.

Likes (Part time work): On campus jobs are available but competitive opportunities include working in the library dining services or as a teaching assistant. Off campus work is limited due to visa restrictions but my roles may be available under CAT.

Dislikes (Indian Food): There are some Indian restaurants nearb, the authenticity and variety of dishes are limited. Most places offer North Indian cuisine but South Indian or regional dishes are rare. There are also Chinese Italian and American restaurants in the area. The price range for these meals is 10-20.

Incredible experience of DePaul University.

Tips: This college is an amazing place. If you come regularly, you'll feel at home here. There are always events going on related to study and fun. There are so many courses to choose from, and you can apply for scholarships. But the best thing about this college is the people. There are so many people who are always ready to help every person who needs it.

Likes (Post study jobs): The college organises a career fair twice a quarter to help every student. They also help us to build resumes. I do not know much about companies but DePaul makes sure that DePaul students will get a higher level of post after study and get paid well.

Dislikes (Part time work): There are very few jobs available to international students, and they are highly competitive. There are only about 200 jobs available on campus, and there are about 3,000 applications for those jobs. International students are not allowed to work off campus, so it is imperative that they find a job on campus if they want to stay in the country.

Select the course wisely.

Tips: Before joining this college students should be aware of the course which they are choosing and how the location of the college is going benefit their course. The university is better than the other in this location and they provide various resources for the students so the student has to utilize these resources. The university keeps many events for networking so we have to put ourselves out there in order to grab the opportunity.

DePaul university has good visa acceptance rate

Tips: If you want to study in an urban setup then it's good. Other than that ROI is not that great. Public transportation of the city is brilliant and economical for students. However, the tuition cost is a bit higher than usual.

Likes (Public transportation): The CTA has done a great job of transportation CTA spells as Chicago public transport. 8 metro lines are there, and nearly 150 different routes of bus transportation. And we need to pay 105 to the university and they will give us a U pass which we can use in public transport.

Dislikes (Value for money): The tuition fees are high because we are studying in an urban setup and obviously we need to pay more to study here. Based on my experience I thought that studying in an urban setup would give more opportunities but it is not always the case. Lastly, your skills only matter.

Bittersweet experience, needs more industry exposure

Tips: There was a huge cultural shift but it was easy to blend in. I did get a scholarship when I got admitted to the university based on my profile as an undergrad. I'm quite satisfied with the quality of my education and the guidance from my advisors.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty members that teach are industry working professionals and they give the students exposure to real-world problems. They are quite helpful as well in terms of doubt-solving and even take one-on-one sessions when discussing assignments. Highly appreciate it.

Dislikes (Part time work): It's very difficult to acquire one. As the application process is quite time-consuming and most of the jobs don't even inform you about the status of the application. It was a good experience overall. I am happy to attend and recommend it as a good option.
