Have fun, don’t stress! Study, adopt and take meaningful steps.

Tips: There'll be cultural shock for sure be it's a different country. But calming yourself down will help a lot. Thinking before doing anything is always helpful. Make friends, don't take on your heart if someone is making fun of you, you can make fun as well. I'm satisfied with the university, country and course I have chosen for my Masters.

Serenity but challenging

Tips: Campus is really huge so it's good for walking. College conducts a lot of activities so it's fun and students can enjoy. CMU could be the best option if you are looking for courses with reasonable fees and low living expenses. However, if someone is looking high standard and wanna see US life then I doubt CMU can be a good fit.

Likes (Student Life): Mount Pleasant city is mainly known for Central Michigan University so we only see people on main campus. There is nothing much to do outside campus. There is no single Indian restaurant in Mt Pleasant. However, there are places nearby where you can roam around but need to look for public transport if you don't have a private vehicle which is again a big problem. There is nothing much in Mt Pleasant but CMU is the main reason for being in Mt Pleasant. College conduct a lot of activities so students can enjoy their time in campus.

Dislikes (Public transportation): There is only one public transport iRide which has fixed spots for pickup and drop. For commute, need to schedule in advance and waiting time is too long. It's ok during summer but really challenging during winter because of snowfall. Most of graduates' classes are in evening and there is no public transport after 8 pm. After 8 pm there is only one which is at 10 pm and nothing in between 8-10 pm.

The student life is very diverse and the faculty helps you to grow big in your professional life.

Tips: Initially, I came for the August 2022 intake and I stayed on campus for the first semester and had a lot of American friends over there and also made Indian friends in classes then moved off campus in the second semester which helped me save some money. People in Mount Pleasant are warm and welcoming, and there is no crime rate. We don't specifically have any scholarships for international students but I highly recommend students apply for graduate assistance as they will be selected if they score a good grade in the semester in all subjects so that they will be waving one subject fee in the next semester and it repeats every year if you continue as a graduate assistant. On a scale of 10, I would rate 8 for CMU in terms of university subjects, accommodation and the environment.

Likes (Quality of faculty): For Masters in Information Systems, we have highly qualified professionals who make understanding the subject very easy as they will clarify your doubts and also help you with the assignment doubts. The core structure will be divided into parts in such a way that from the understanding of the class you have to do assignments weekly and there will be tests every month all over the semester and one final exam. Every assignment and in-class activity will be evaluated and given a score at the end so I highly recommend not to miss any class. Here, I felt a different way of teaching style as compared to India. The professors at CMU will explain a topic and at the same time make you do the assignments based on the concepts they have told us so that we will be able to grasp them quickly and get hands-on experience on the topic.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Central Michigan University is located in Mount Pleasant. Here there are no Indian restaurants or stores where people from India can try so we have to rely on American food such as McD, Burger King etc. To have Indian food we have to travel to the nearest big city Lansing which is an hour's drive from Mount Pleasant or Detroit ( Farmington Hills ) which is a two-hour drive, where we can explore a lot of Indian cuisine and grocery stores, that is the reason why I chose one star for country food in Mount Pleasant. You can try Qdoba or Chipotle as these tastes will be the nearest to Indian food. A bowl will cost around 12- 20 $ depending on what your protein toppings are. As we don't have a lot of Indian options around Mount Pleasant we almost cook at home and invite friends over weekends to cook biryanis. Once every month we go outings to Lansing to have Indian food and watch movies.

I like CMU and never thought I made a wrong decision.

Tips: Life here is not as shown in movies. Prepare for the worst and you will survive not only here but in any other part of the world. Part-time jobs take time but you need to be patient. You can apply from India and come over here and work immediately. The climate here is very cold be prepared when you arrive. You can buy winter clothes here so don't buy winter clothes or a laptop if you don't have one.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty are approachable and they welcome any sort of disagreement in the class. I have fun attending and learning things, it is way different from India. The assignments are not heavy but still make your whole week busy. To meet the faculty you need to make a prior appointment and it's complex at times but the best thing is to get your doubts clarified once the class is finished. Faculty will spend extra time if you ask questions after class.

Dislikes (Indian Food): The place where I live doesn't have any Indian stores but the food can be managed if you can cook with what you get. Try to bring spices and a cooker from India and, if possible, avoid salt and sugar for immigration purposes. Food is not that big issue here you will adjust.

Hard to find part-time work.

Tips: Don't panic. The moment you enter the university seeing new people. Stay calm and join any student association they will help you in your hour of need. There are Indian stores nearby. There is so many Indian students association available. These are things students should know.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Most of the faculty in this university have high knowledge in their field. Some professors are doing research in their field that would benefit the students under the faculty. The faculty is very jovial and friendly with the students. They are supporting students in every way possible.

Dislikes (Part time work): Nowadays it is very competitive to get work. The only place you can do part-time is in college that too from 1st year 2nd sem. You will get that job only if your academics are high and with the connections you made with the seniors and with the faculty. Most of the cases getting part-time is hard.
