Professional Master of Computer Science (MCS) - Batch of 2020
4.5
One of the best CS grad schools where I was able to make net positive money during my Masters!
Tips: Do not let cold weather be a reason for not joining UIUC, you get used to it. Apart from the thesis, there is no difference between MS and MS programme and both are considered the same for job applications but the thesis programme helps you improve your profile by getting to work with a professor on a research project. Computer Science programme has decent TA/RA opportunities and if you get one, you get 100% fee waiver and $2500 monthly stipend which is well above the monthly expenses. Post covid, intake to the professional MS programme has significantly increased from ~60 to ~300 resulting in a lot more competition to get a TA/RA.
Likes (Quality of faculty): UIUC has some of the best faculty in Computer Science, many times professors teach content that has been published in books by themselves. UIUC has many diverse professors, a very wide choice of course selection and a lot of flexibility in choosing courses.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Since Urban-Champaign is a college town, there are not that many Indian restaurants and for people who eat Jain food, there are hardly any food options outside. But there are many events in the department buildings where you can occasionally get free Pizzas.

Best campustown in USA which gives you most bang for your buck compared to anywhere in states
Tips: Very accommodating culture. It will be the best experience of your life. Teachers are very knowledgeable. MS programme can be tailored to your liking where you can take courses from any department without much restrictions. This happened to be the best experience of my life.
Likes (Safety): Campustown is organized in a manner where all the students converge to Green Street where we have everything needed creating an awesome environment to meet new people and have fun. Cricket lovers can join Cricket Club of Illinois for a rewarding cricket experience and tons of tournaments in summer.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Faculty is very approachable and compassionate. After first semester most Masters student can find a RA or TA position. Try to meet with the faculty and show what drives you to do research and teaching and you will get a way around. The faculty is well-educated and mostly from universities ranked above UIUC.

Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering - Batch of 2024

Most people and faculty are friendly.
Tips: Champaign is the best town to live in for those coming to the US for the first time. Pros such as low rent, a friendly campus, etc. can be of help. I availed a Research Assistantship which resulted in a tuition fee waiver. Very satisfied with my courses and the University.

Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering - Batch of 2023

My Review on doing a Masters in UIUC
Tips: Since the university is in Illinois, the weather during the winters is brutal, which most Indians will find difficult to adapt to. Hence I advise you to buy proper winter clothes when winter approaches. The grocery stores on or near campus are also expensive, so you need to learn how to buy food in bulk without wasting anything. UIUC has a large diaspora of not only Indians but other nationalities as well, so socializing is necessary but not tedious. Despite this, feelings of loneliness can set in since everyone will be busy studying for their courses, which one should be prepared for.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus has a functional transportation service which is free for students of UIUC, with plenty of buses there to reach most parts of Champaign-Urban. Despite buses taking more time to reach the destination you wish to go to, the part that is already included in your tuition fees is convenient since one pays $60 as public transportation fees.
Dislikes (Value for money): Since I did my Masters in Aerospace Engineering, finding internships for myself was tedious due to ITAR. And unlike Indian institutes, we have to find internships by ourselves because most companies that come to the career fair look for US citizens only, though I would advise going to the career fair anyway to network.

Bachelor of Science in Computer Science - Batch of 2026
4.3
You will be required to work hard.
Tips: UIUC is a work hard-play hard type of university. If you're into that, then definitely do apply! Also keep in mind that UIUC does not give out many scholarships to international students. The research opportunities are great here, along with more than 1000+ clubs and organizations.
Likes (Public transportation): The bus transportation system is one of the best in the country. The bus system is free for all students, and the bus network extends beyond the campus, to the surrounding Champaign-Urbana area. There are a number of buses, which means there's never a shortage or long waiting time on them. Buses are also more so generally they are quite on time.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There aren't many authentic versions of Indian dishes in the dining halls. Although, you could get Indian food in restaurants outside the campus. Some days, in particular dining halls such as ISR, Indian food is provided in the form of samosas or paneer, however I wouldn't rely on the authenticity.

Life changing and worthwhile experience.
Tips: Before you join this university, it is important to prepare beforehand regarding the course curriculum and academic requirements. If possible, get a tour of the campus before you permanently move in and join whatever informative sessions are held. Part- time opportunities are not so great.

Work on time-management. Education is excellent.
Tips: Acquire fundamentals culinary skills by mastering one or two dishes. Invest in a pressure cooker, particularly if you're from India, as it significantly expedites cooking. Familiarize yourself with local culture, tax regulations and essential protocols. Upon arrival in the Netherlands, consider obtaining a second-hand bike through the Facebook Marketplace. Explore informative YouTube video featuring the experiences of Indian students in Delft. Swiftly pay your tuition feels to secure an early slots for housing, especially if you've opted for Delfts accommodation. Establish connections on LinkedIn, as the majority of students here are exceptionally friendly. I've found that the education quality surpasses that of India; however, it poses a slightly greater challenge. Consistency is key, and time management skills are imperative. I am thoroughly content with my course; the professors are not only approachable but also friendly. Assignments demand substantial hours, so forming small groups for collaborative discussions is advisable. Be cautious not to submit identical work, as plagiarism is deemed a serious offence.
Likes (Value for money): The Dutch education system at TUD differs somewhat from the Indian education system at VIT. The Indian system places a primary emphasis on applied engineering, involving numerical and standard equations, whereas the aerospace programme at TUD places a greater focus on fundamental principles. I recommend thoroughly reviewing the subjects offered and the syllabus to gain a comprehensive understanding. If you are seeking a more in-depth mathematically and physically oriented education, Delft's curriculum is well-suited to those preferences.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The Netherlands boasts an extensive and efficient public transportation network, encompassing trams, trains and buses. While living costs may be relatively higher for students arriving from India, the convenience of frequent train and tram services is noteworthy. To navigate the transportation system effectively, I recommend downloading apps like 9292 and NS to stay informed about train timings and schedules. This is particularly crucial as maintenance work is periodically conducted, necessitating a bit of advance planning.

Learning the Dutch language will enhance your experience.
Tips: You should be prepared for the rigour of a quarter-based system, and that of a research-oriented Master. The opportunities while pursuing a degree are extremely multi-faceted and rewarding if you are passionate and dedicated. The Dutch people in the city are very welcoming and even though you can perfectly accommodate them without ever learning any Dutch but it would be recommended to learn it in order to better integrate with the Dutch culture.
Likes (Public transportation): Everything in Delft is extremely well connected and you can use public transport for end-to-end connectivity. You generally rent or buy a (second-hand) bike to traverse around the small 6km cover of Delft, however, it is possible to walk and cover the entire city's diameter (or reach the campus from any place in Delft) within 30 minutes. Even if you live outside Delft due to the paucity of houses within, you can easily traverse via the train system (as many students do).
Dislikes (Indian Food): A lot of Indian restaurants and Indian grocery stores are available such that you always have options. Even though the food options for eating out or delivery are on the steeper side (due to food in Netherlands in general being expensive), there are options to buy groceries (even good quality Indian groceries) to cook at home for cheap.

Delft University of Technology is the best place to get success.
Tips: The university tends to provide global education. Our university often invites visiting professors from other countries, especially for specialized subject research. The university offers many extracurricular activities, including the freedom to choose personal activities. It also hosts a wide range of events. I have participated in many university events and even received a scholarship that provides a stipend for living expenses. I am very satisfied with my experience at this university.
