NYUAD: A Chef's Salad An American Institute in the middleast

Tips: If you are not used to being in a diverse environment, the transition to NYUAD could be difficult. However, it is a very friendly campus with a zero-discrimination policy. For Indians, it is not very difficult to adjust because there's a large Indian community on campus. There are options to get a fully-funded education that covers everything and I got one. Your admission application process is through a common app, and if you want a fully-funded education, you can also submit a college board ap...

Not worthy but fascinating

Tips: NYU gives out scholarships if you have a good UG GPA. Personally, the transition worked out for me, talking about cultural shifts I would say that ain't big of an issue. Overall I'd say I am more than satisfied with my decision to pursue a masters not exclusively academic but decent.

Great experience in the greatest city.

Tips: New York is a difficult city to live in and demands much out of you on a daily basis, if you cannot deal with that NYU is not for you. There is a huge cultural shift but depending on how much you are able to embrace the energy in NY, you will be able to adjust well. I did not need a scholarship so unsure how that works. I was very satisfied with my college experience.

Living is a bit costly but it will be worth it.

Tips: Everything will be costly, and it's super easy to go beyond your budget. One of the best cities to live in, especially if you are used to being around a lot of people. Public transportation is the best in the country. On-campus jobs pay $29 per hour, which is excellent.

Tips: I come from a totally different country and culture, so yes, there is diversity. However, by comparison, this is fairly other world, and people here are really open-minded. Scholarships are also being provided to deserving students which cost 7k to 10k USD per year. I am very satisfied with my university and course but living here, especially dorms is very costly around 500 to 1500 USD.

NYU is a great place to study at. Just keep yourself open to everything.

Tips: I did not experience any major cultural shifts at NYU. Make a group of 4 students and preferably look for accommodation together. Would be cheaper that way and less stressful. I received a scholarship from the university and you do not need a separate application for it. You will find many Indian and Chinese students in your class.
