4.1
Diverse learning environment
Tips: Little to no cultural shift. Need to focus on academics and network and meet new people as much as possible. Since it is a very fast paced city and a very big college with the largest international student population, it is not very difficult to adapt.
Likes (Student Life): Lots of extracurriculars as well as networking events. Events on campus as throughout the city. Plenty of student opportunities to develop. Inclusive campus. Lots of opportunities to save money. Facilities like subsidised food and groceries. Diverse population.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I don't plan to permanently immigrate. There are plenty of opportunities for permanent settlement here. Need to pursue a career in the STEM industry or pursue a Ph.D. to apply for an H1B visa. Plenty of companies to apply to which will help you settle.

MS Electrical Engineering - Batch of 2025
4.9
New York University, is definitely a great place for study and job opportunities.
Tips: Living in New York City, the biggest concern would be finding a place to live and then paying the rent. Rent is another expensive aspect, but sharing apartments with other students often makes it easier. I am living in Brooklyn, as it is closer to my university. Apart from the above two, New York can sometimes be a surprisingly cheap place to live in. The cost of living is very easily manageable, and travelling by subway is very convenient. Engineering school is generous with scholarships and opportunities, though. On-campus jobs are plentiful but so are the applicants. It is very much possible to get one right away. My course is Masters in Electrical and Computer Engineering where my main focus is towards High Performance Computational hardware and software. The curriculum is very well designed and it is really great, but the thing that shines out is the side opportunities like clubs, chapters and exposure.
Dislikes (Value for money): As far as fees is concerned, NYU is definitely one of the most expensive options in the US. There are other expensive universities, but that does not make NYU any more affordable. The I-20 amount for any student in engineering is $67k, which is the lowest of all programs.
