4.2

An experience to be watched out.

Tips: I experienced a cultural shift but it doesn't affect me because one should expect that when you are going away from your home city. I did not avail of any scholarships but there are some where international students can get it. Very good university and the courses are excellent as well as the city and country.

Likes (Value for money): The faculty and facilities that the campus provided are absolutely worth your money. There is an ETIC lab in our college which provides all the resources that a student need to build prototypes for their projects and also if they want to do any project the school will sponsor the project if they like it.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of getting permanent immigration is 1 out of 10. Given a chance I will not immigrate to this country because I just need a different country exposure and rather living there I would like to go to different cities, and countries and like to know much better about how the other countries work.

Operations & Supply Chain Management, M.B.A. - Batch of 2025

Offered by New York Institute of Technology

Combined and accelerated degrees. Accreditation, Industry partnerships

Tips: Students must remember that fees are a little high in comparison to other universities which I believe is because of the location (New york central location). Living on campus will be high ($15-18k/year). Most students prefer to live in Jersey city because it's quite cheaper and very easy to commute daily. Expenses include: Tuition fees + Insurance/semester ($1000-1100) +books are not forced to buy if you can manage from another student or library or if you can find it online for free (Professors use their own presentation slides to teach students) +living expenses (average $1500-1700/Month)+ personal expenses Approximately: 52-53 Lakhs total tuition fees+1.5-2 Lakhs/year Insurance+1.2-1.5 Lakhs/month Living, food, internet, and commute+other personal expenses

Likes (Post study jobs): I rated 5 on student life because, first and foremost, there are multiple class/session options available for all the courses including day classes as well as late evening classes in person. Students can choose to study from zoom and online classes as well depending on the courses. Free access to Bloomberg certifications, LinkedIn learnings, the New York Times, and many other activities. Students get an opportunity to participate in number of activities to develop entrepreneurial skills and show their talents to industry leaders. It's quite flexible here and the campus environment is also pleasant. You will find many Indian students to help you with your course and other activities. The campus is in the central location of New York, so no doubt filled with many career opportunities. Job placement is more than 94 percent.

Dislikes (Safety): I rated 5 on the quality of faculty because, at NYIT, all the professors , admissions registrars, and course advisors including dean are very cooperative and helpful. They are always there to provide all the possible support and information to the students whether it is fess payment, class registration, or any other course-related support required. Moreover, the quality of education is good and all the professors are highly qualified from world-known universities. Students often and easily get a chance to meet students from other areas (EX: business analytics, marketing, finance, accounting or any other).
