A great college with lots of opportunities.
Tips: While applying to this university, you are by default eligible for the NAMU scholarship. If you are awarded any, then it will be mentioned in your offer letter. As far as I know, most people who scored above 9.0 CGPA received a scholarship. Other than that, the courses are diverse and you get to choose from a ton of courses from great professors. One thing is at the end of each semester, you'll need to hustle to grab your desired classes as the demand is huge. Overall, I am quite satisfied with mu experiences.
Likes (Public transportation): Most public transport is free of cost and bus availability is also pretty good with every bus within 15 minutes interval. The paid ones are also quite affordable with only $2 for any distance you travel. The buses even have a cycle track so you can loads your cycle whenever you are tired.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer to cook at home because very few Indian restaurants serve authentic Indian food. Even when I request spicy food, the restaurants tend to make it sweet. Also, it is difficult to find Indian ingredients, so it is better to bring your own when you come here.

Arizona State University gives all you want - great faculty and strong academics.
Tips: Before joining this college, students should know they can apply for part-time or on-campus jobs from India before coming to the US. They should also contact as many professors as possible for grading, teaching assistant, or research assistant positions. If students have a CGPA of 9.0 or higher, they may be eligible for the NAMU scholarship. Finally, students shouldn't be concerned about a cultural shift, as there are many Indian students and organizations on campus.
Likes (Student Life): There are so many Indian Masters students with whom we can enjoy. There are many Asian student clubs where various events are conducted, like Diwali and Ganpati celebrations. I used to participate in all Indian events. Don't miss the food here, as it is usually amazing.
Dislikes (Safety): There are some robbery issues near campus, but I didn't have any experience. There is an alarm-based app and mail system that will notify students and faculty if any dangerous issues occur. Other than that, the police here are really helpful and always available.

Arizona State University- where one shape future.
Tips: When I first came to this university, I was not comfortable with the cultural shift. It was a bit of a shock at first, but I gradually got used to it. I did not receive a scholarship, but I am satisfied with my course and the university. There are very few companies that offer visa sponsorship. Also, all job roles are offered in the United States with an average package of at least 60K USD for a Data Analyst position, and around 80K USD minimum for a Software Engineer position.
Likes (Student Life): I spend most of my day studying at home, but many students spend their time on campus in the libraries. The libraries are well-equipped with the latest technology. There is a wide community of students at ASU, and many Indian cultural events take place on campus.

Arizona State University is number 1 in innovation.
Tips: There are some things that students should know before joining Arizona State University. First, you will probably have to live off campus unless you are an honour student. Do your research to find out what housing options are available. Also, depending on where you are from, you may experience a significant cultural shift and change in climate, especially if you are from a cold climate. Finally, there are some scholarships available for international students, but the amount may depend on your country of origin.

A good start for undergraduate experience which will open doors in future.
Tips: ASU is a good start for undergraduate studies, particularly because of the range of opportunities it offers. The cultural shift when moving to a new environment is always significant, but the people here are incredibly welcoming, which made the adjustment much easier. ASU has a NAMU scholarship for international students and the amount can vary according to your application, marks and resume. There are over 1000 clubs that one can join and get introduced to new activities. The professors are really good here lot of them are more big IVY League colleges too.

Tips: It is really hot here in Arizona, so be prepared for that. Don't expect anyone to call you for a part-time job or internship but you will need to actively seek out opportunities. There are plenty of clubs and activities at the university, so make sure to take advantage of them.
Likes (Part time work): Plenty of part-time jobs are available compared to the other universities. There are jobs in dining as well. The payout depends upon the type of part-time job. They are bound to pay minimum wage to states. If you do well in class, lots of opportunities are provided by proof as well.

There's a world of opportunity out here if you're driven here and you should utilise the resources given to you while being an active part of the student community as well such as through sports or clubs and societies.
Dislikes (Internships): There are limited internships available, especially in the field I am pursuing and the college has a limited number of openings as well which further complicates finding a good opportunity with a reasonable stipend.

University of Waterloo is great for STEM and the industry.
Tips: University of Waterloo with its coop programme is a very STEM and industry-oriented university. Many students through their coops will get work experience and skills that they then use to get full-time jobs and a lot do internships also offer students full-time offers if they do well. Overall the courses offered are useful and helpful, but the best part about the university is the coop programme.
Likes (Public transportation): So with your student card, you can use all the public transport in Waterloo for free. There is a bus system that connects very well all across the city to the university and is especially useful in the winter when it's hard to walk outside. There are also tunnels and indoor bridges that connect different campus buildings so it's easier to travel in the winter and there is also a tram that runs between big hubs.
Dislikes (Student Life): I put a 3 on student life because the University of Waterloo is very study-oriented. There is often a lot of work pressure and multiple things at once for students, so we don't get the chance to enjoy other aspects of university life, like events and going out.

Tips: If you are creative and keen on embarking on research, this is a good place to consider.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Getting any kind of long-term employment opportunity especially as an Indian is going to be a very tricky and unlikely task. They have become extremely particular and your chances of moving here to immigrate are slim to none. It is better to plan an alternative instead.

This is for passionate learners to research and work on building new and awesome things.
Tips: In terms of pursuing a Masters, University of Waterloo has a very good research focused programme where you can dedicate your time to research. This was one of the biggest factors in my choosing to go to UWaterloo over other US colleges I had fully funded offers from. Talking of which you should have a look at the scholarships you can avail for Masters, at Waterloo, at least for CS programs, you can find a scholarship that can cover your tuition and expenses and leave you with a bit extra to save as well. I would say in terms of graduation school your experience would vary based on your supervisors and you should get in touch with past students of the professor you want to work with so you get a better idea of the expectations and opportunities. Just 2 semesters in I have been exposed to so many different things which have only helped me reaffirm my decision to pursue Master at UWaterloo. There are no wrong choices in terms of the school, it's honestly the people that matter and what you make of the opportunities provided to you!
Likes (Indian Food): There are Indian stores all around Ontario, you wouldn't have difficulty finding desi ingredients for cooking or lack of Indian food for takeout though it might be pricier than you expect. To be honest there is every kind of cuisine around the campus due to the large number of international students.
Dislikes (Part time work): I am writing this at a point the job market isn't great and I see some of my friends struggling to land a good job that makes most of their skills. I haven't had issues finding part-time work in the realm of AI and also there are a lot of opportunities your supervisors can expose you to.

University of Waterloo: Balancing academics, culture, and opportunity!
Tips: Before joining UWaterloo, prospective students should be prepared for a rigorous academic environment and consider the opportunities that the wonderfully built co-op programme provides for gaining real-world experience. Transitioning here, I did experience some cultural shifts, but the diverse campus community made it easier for me to adapt. I was fortunate to secure scholarships, primarily based on academic merit, which somewhat ease my financial burden. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with my university, the CS degree, and the opportunities this country has provided for personal and academic growth.
Likes (Indian Food): I would rate Indian food options as a 5 as rich and diverse flavours are abundant. Local Indian restaurants around campus offer a range of authentic and fusion Indian, as well as Chinese and Korean dishes, appropriately priced. While I enjoy dining out for socialising, Indian tiffin services off-campus provides a convenient and budget-friendly taste of home.
Dislikes (Student Life): My student life at UWaterloo has been demanding with occasionally heavy workloads. To offset that, I would very highly regard the diversity, co-op opportunities, and variety of student clubs, but finding a balance with academic commitments, especially pursuing a STEM degree can be challenging at times, though very doable with appropriate planning.

Tips: Try to do as many co-ops as you can. The university offers great work opportunities. Each department offers specific scholarships, so do apply within the deadline.

UofWaterloo also has country-specific organizations like uwindia - they organize Indian theme parties, and festivals.

University of Waterloo is a great place to study
Tips: The University of Waterloo is indeed a great place to study for someone passionate about expanding their knowledge as well as network. Based on my experience and things I heard, there are trends to zero chances of getting a scholarship for the MEng ECE programme. The programme is a little bit expensive but if you are privileged enough to spend that much without having financial pressure then it is worth it. If you are enthusiastic about the field you are pursuing and love learning new things, this might be the right place for you.
Likes (Safety): In the Kitchener/Waterloo region, I feel a majority of the population are students. And people are genuinely nice with helping nature as well as the public transport system is also good to some extent. So there is less safety concern compared to other cities in Canada/US.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Being a vegetarian who doesn't even eat eggs, it is quite difficult to eat outside because there are very less options available in most restaurants regardless of some Indian food chain. But it would be costly. So it is better to cook at home and maintain a healthy diet.

The wonderful opportunities resulting from the grind at UWaterloo (CS/Math + Engineering Only)
Tips: Scholarships are rare to come by, even if you get a scholarship, it is unlikely to cover much of the overall expenses. You might get consumed by the competitive environment and therefore inevitably become part of a rat race. Don't do that, you need to know what you care about and focus on those objectives and fulfil your own goals. UWaterloo is a grind, but it is worth it, and the main thing is you feel good about yourself at the end of the day, and finding that fulfilment from within yourself is what truly makes you happy. Note - Living in a different country is a painful process, just be mentally prepared for the cultural shift, for me, no matter what, I will always return to India and I miss home a lot, I just have to deal with it.
Likes (Internships): This is the main reason to come to UWaterloo - The co-op (internship) opportunities. By the time you graduate, you will have completed 4-6 internships which sets you up to work in big teach if you wish. The top programs at the University include - Computer Science (1 in Canada, the biggest feeder to Silicon Valley as students have 2 years of work ex by the time they graduate), Engineering (Any Engineering), Math (Any faculty of math programs), AFM (Accounting and Financial Management).
Dislikes (Safety): There are reports of stabbings every now and then, especially recently when there was an attempted stabbing on campus. Usually a very safe city but it doesn't mean that you should not be cautious. Rated 2 simply because of recent incidents, but nothing bad has happened in the last 4 months.
