4.1

Friendly faculty and diverse campus.

Tips: Students should understand the university's academic reputation, curriculum structure, and total cost, including tuition and living expenses. It's also important to explore campus facilities and student life to see if it's a good fit. Try to research the average job rates and internship opportunities available.

Master of Science in Information Technology - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Cincinnati

I feel that this college is such a nice place to explore things and travel to reach our aspirations.

Tips: I've become more determined in my work since coming here. I've experienced a bit of a cultural shift, but I was looking forward to that. Unfortunately, I did not receive any scholarships. My day at UC starts with an on-campus part-time job and ends with classes. The class schedule is flexible, so students can arrange their timetable around their part-time hours. There are many types of events on campus, including regional events, blood drives, and awareness programs. There is also a wide range of student clubs and organizations that are very helpful in the growth of students. I'm really happy with the college, the course, and the country.

Dislikes (Safety): The faculty in my department are highly accessible and approachable. The teaching methodologies are unique in that the LMS has all the course modules, which allows us to preview the concepts before class. The teaching faculty is diverse in terms of nationality. I have professors from India, Japan, China, the USA, and Africa.

BS in Business Analytics - Batch of 2026

Offered by University of Cincinnati

3.8

Amazing University but could use some help in being diverse and inclusive.

Tips: The experience was full of ups and downs. I applied to the university during the application process and was accepted. I was very satisfied with the University of Cincinnati. There are a lot of opportunities, especially for the parents and family ambassador job. The hours are very flexible. The Digital Philanthropy Associate job has fixed hours and must be followed accordingly. If you manage your time well, both jobs are pretty manageable. The starting pay rate for both jobs is 10 Dollars per hour.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are multiple companies, but not enough jobs that align with a Business Analytics major. Data analyst, tax accountant, data entry, financial modelling, risk management, insurance management, and wealth management are all positions that start at 75,000 Dollars.

BA in Economics - Batch of 2026

University of Cincinnati is great. I had wonderful experiences.

Tips: The University of Cincinnati is a great school. The people are good, the faculty is good, and the system is good. Scholarships are very possible, but you have to be smart when asking for them. I would highly suggest diversifying your friend group to really get the culture and the way of life of the American people. I had a great experience at the University of Cincinnati.

University offers quality education and enriching experience.

Tips: University offers diverse programs and a vibrant campus life, with ample resources and support services for students. The inclusive environment helps ease any cultural shift. Scholarships are available based on merit. The application process is pretty straightforward.

Likes (Indian Food): There are numerous Indian restaurants in Cincinnati, and quite a few around the university campus. There's plenty of options catering to both south and north Indians. If you enjoy cooking, you can find all the ingredients at the nearest Indian grocery store.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): The current market situation is not very favorable and lot of companies are looking for candidates that do not require any visa sponsorship. Quite a few of my peers from the programme are working as data/ business analyst, develops and project managers.
