The university is average and the faculty does not seem interested in teaching.
Tips: Students should know that they need to do more self-study, spend more time preparing for class, and learn the local language. Also, there are no scholarship options for foreign students, only for locals. The hospital's knowledge is good, and the staff is good at coping with our language barrier. The patients are good as well. However, there aren't many interesting cases in our city. I like the hospital's ambience, but they don't teach much about clinical knowledge.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The faculty are unbothered and do not care about us. They are also careless at times. Even if we read the material, they will not listen to us. They use their phones during class and do not explain anything properly. They do not impart any knowledge and show favouritism to certain students.

Ulyanovsk State University has a vibrant and friendly campus.
Tips: Before joining this college, students should know that they need to stay flexible and adapt to new environments, people, and situations. They should also respect diversity and embrace cultural differences. Students should also check the criteria, deadlines, and application requirements to ensure their eligibility. The allowance varies depending on scholarships. Students should attend orientation sessions to familiarize themselves with campus resources. They should also network with peers, professors, and alumni. Students should also manage their time effectively to balance academics, extracurricular activities, and personal life. Students should also be open-minded, respectful, and patient when adapting to a new culture. Finally, students should not hesitate to ask for assistance from professors, advisors, or counseling services.
Dislikes (Part time work): I feel a sense of belonging in the campus community, which is diverse and inclusive. There are a variety of extracurricular activities, clubs, and organizations to choose from. Support services, including counselling, academic advising, and career guidance, are easily accessible. The campus has high-quality facilities, libraries, and technology resources. Opportunities for student engagement, including leadership, volunteer, and socialization activities, are readily available. The campus is safe and accessible, with a pleasant surrounding environment. Recreational activities, including fitness centres, sports facilities, and cultural events, are available.

Ulyanovsk State University is good for balancing between studies and extracurriculars.
Tips: Students should know that studying at this university is not easy, but it is not that difficult either. However, the winters are very cold, with temperatures reaching -30 degrees Celsius. So, be prepared for that and bring a good quality jacket. Public transportation is very slow and unreliable. Sometimes I have to wait 30 minutes to an hour for a bus or train. I really need a car, but the rules are very strict, and taxis are too expensive. For a 3-kilometer ride, the fare is more than 250 rubles, and in the morning it can be more than 300 rubles.
Likes (Part time work): It's a good opportunity for students to get a 2-3 month job and earn 70k+. You do need to learn the local language for everyday jobs, but it's worth it. Last year I earned 75k from a 2-month job.

World-class education in a supportive community.
Tips: Before joining Ulyanovsk State Medical University, Russia, students should know that programs are often in English, but Russian language skills are useful. The weather is cold, so prepare for extreme temperatures. The culture is unique, so be open-minded and respectful. After arriving, I transitioned smoothly with the university's help. I experienced a cultural shift, but the diverse student body and cultural events helped me adapt. I received a merit-based scholarship that covered 50% of my tuition fees. To get the scholarship, I submitted my academic transcripts, letters of recommendation, and a personal statement. The allowance was sufficient to cover my educational expenses. I'm extremely satisfied with my medical course at USMU.
Likes (Student Life): The college offers a vibrant and inclusive environment that fosters growth, exploration, and connection. My day in college is always exciting and filled with various activities. A typical day for me begins with attending lectures and tutorials, where I engage with professors and peers to discuss course materials and share ideas. After classes, I usually grab lunch with friends at the cafeteria or nearby eateries, which offers a great opportunity to socialize and take a break. In the afternoons, I often participate in extracurricular activities, such as joining club meetings, attending workshops or seminars, or practicing with my sports team. These activities help me develop new skills, pursue my passion, and build meaningful relationships with like-minded individuals. One of the things I enjoy most about my college life is the sense of community and belonging. My college organizes various events throughout the year, such as cultural festivals, concerts, and guest lectures, which bring students together and create lasting memories. Some popular events on our campus include the annual cultural fest, the teach expo, and the sports day. I try to participate in these events as often as I can, as they offer a great way to meet new people, learn about different cultures and interests, and showcase my own talents. Our campus also has a wide range of student clubs and communities, catering to diverse interests such as music, drama, dance, sports, and community service. Some popular student clubs on our campus include the debate team, the photography club, the environment society, and the entrepreneurship cell. These clubs provide a platform for students to pursue their passion, develop new skills, and contribute to the college community.
Dislikes (Internships): The faculty members in my department are extremely accessible and approachable. They foster open communication, encouraging students to ask questions and seek guidance whenever needed. This approachability helps build strong mentor-mentee relationships, which are invaluable for academic and professional growth. One unique aspect of the teaching methodology in my department is the emphasis on experiential learning. Professors incorporated real-world examples, case studies, and hands-on projects to illustrate key concepts. This approach helps students connect theoretical knowledge with practical applications, making learning more engaging and effective. The teaching faculty in my department is diverse in terms of nationality, with professors from various countries and cultural backgrounds. This diversity brings unique perspectives and insights to the classroom, enriching the learning experience. Faculty members are also encouraged to share th

Embracing change - navigating culture shift in college.
Tips: Transitioning to college, especially, if it involves moving to a new environment or region can be a significant experience that often comes with various cultural shifts. The first one is independence and responsibility and the second is the deserving perspectives. In our department techniques methodology is distributed by its emphasis on experiential learning and interdisciplinary. This approach encourages students to engage, actively with the material moving beyond the traditional lecture-based instruction. Spending a day in college can be quite dynamic and typically my day starts with attending lectures or classes where I engage with professors and classmates on various subjects. I enjoy the interactive discussions on the understanding of the material. There are often many on-campus activities held on campus. You should participate and try to build dome connections. The weather here is harsh so make sure you prepare yourself. Overall, it has been a wonderful experience here.

The university provides many events, activities and clubs for students.
Tips: The education and fee structure is reasonable. The transportation system is a little slow, but it's cheap. There is no pollution, and everything works in a systematic way. The people are strict about their rules and regulations, which is a good thing. I am very satisfied with my university.
Likes (Student Life): My day at university starts at 8:00 AM and ends in the afternoon. There are many different types of clubs, including sports, fashion shows, and dance clubs. We have our own swimming pool and can swim. We can also organize football matches with other universities and participate in other sports activities, including the National Olympiad.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I like vegetarian food, but it is difficult to find vegetables here. You can get them, but they are expensive. Frozen vegetables are an option, but then there is the cost of electricity to keep them frozen. Day-to-day items like oil and salt are reasonably priced.
