This is the best college for any international student.
Tips: Students should know the past experiences of graduate students. And should also know some basic computer and communication skills as they help you a lot in achieving good grades. I am really satisfied with my college as it didn't put a lot of pressure on me.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of permanent settlement in this country are good. 80% as the country offers everything that is thought to achieve while coming here, the facility, the opportunity, the freedom, everything but you have to make sure you are working as hard as you can to achieve them.
Dislikes (Safety): The city is not safe overall, there is a number of crimes happening all over the city. The crime rate in the city has doubled the number in the past 2 years. As the college is in downtown, the students have to witness many crime happening around them.
