Good friendly staff, but in person teaching and global exposure is missing.

Tips: Quality learning is missing, and international students, won't feel like international students because most people are Indians. Recorded lectures were given for the online lecture and in one out of my 3 subject only one professor was good infact great but the other two were just completing the syllabus and recorded lectures were extremely boring.

Likes (Public transportation): They used to provide free transport to nearby stations. And transport from one campus to another which is at a distance of more than a mile. Fairfield is close the Bridgeport station which has straight train to NYC Grand Central Most Indian students lives in new jersey Next to nyc .

Dislikes (Value for money): I can learn better at YouTube for free, most lectures are online that too recorded. Only one lecture in a week wasn't enough to be called a full-time course. It maybe good for healthcare students but not good for business and finance students.

My college is the place to learn and to grow

Tips: I didn't face any transition when I came here as I can see more people from my country. I didn't receive any scholarship when I applied for this college. I am completely satisfied with the university as it has a very good faculty and also they especially take care of Indian students. In terms of public transportation, there are so many buses to travel around the campus and also college buses are provided.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I don't see any options to get into permanent immigration/settlement options as we are not allowed to stay there.

Strong and friendly community.

Tips: The courses are practical and relevant to the industry. While job preparation is well-conducted, there is room for improvement in research facilities. The people are friendly, and the small class sizes allow for ample interaction with professors. Scholarships are attainable with a timely application and a strong resume.

University is worth the money we pay

Tips: Course duration is 15 months only and there was no cpt until last semester. The college is fun with super cool infrastructure. Most of the part time work available in college has heavy competition so getting it is a bit tough unless you have good rapport with advisor of the course.

Likes (Student Life): College infrastructure and the curriculum is good. I really enjoy in the college. I feel its worth the money compared to the other universities nearby. I think the best thing about the college is the friendly nature and the vibe we get from the environment.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent settlement is directly dependent on student’s profile and their career and luck for H1. So I cannot say that there is permanent settlement on this university. Given that you are the best in academics would definitely fetch you best results and grades in the university.

MS in Healthcare Informatics - Batch of 2027

Offered by Sacred Heart University

Comprehensive industry, limited opportunities.

Tips: My program allows me to pursue a specific but comprehensive industry, working in healthcare, insurance, and IT. The people here are friendly and helpful, and the professors are equally engaged. You'll need patience and an open mind. Try to be active and try to socialise with people. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with my experiences here.
