The challenges, growth and opportunities at Northeastern University.
Tips: Adapting to a cultural and academic environment was both challenging and enriching. I didn't avail of any scholarship as it's very difficult to get for international students for some courses. I am very satisfied with the course and the country although I found Northeastern a bit expensive than other universities.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is very well connected to the rest of the city via public transportation. There are trains, buses and bikes available at very low prices. We have both bus and train stops at the campus which makes it very easy to travel. Also, there are monthly student passes available at fairly low prices if you travel a lot using public transport.
Dislikes (Part time work): It is very difficult to get an on-campus job at Northeastern University because there are a lot of students and the jobs are comparatively very less. The average payout is $14/hr for part-time work. Having a part-time time is manageable because you can schedule your shifts according.

Good experience and the college provides lots of on campus events for networking.
Tips: The people are friendly and helpful, and the academics are excellent. However, there are no scholarships, so tuition assistance is not guaranteed. There are lots of networking events, which I find very helpful. I'm pretty satisfied with my experience here, and I hope the job market improves soon so that students can find jobs more easily.
Dislikes (Part time work): Student intake is very large. This makes it very competitive to get an on-campus job. There are not many openings compared to the number of students. Emailing professors for TA/RA roles sometimes helps. Off-campus work is illegal on an F1 visa. The pay is pretty good, starting at $20/hour for TAships. The workload isn't too bad.

Very limited opportunities for jobs/part-time for International students.
Tips: I didn’t experience anything new as there are too many Indians. I have not availed of any scholarships either. It’s very tough to be in the eye of professors as there are way too many students to compete with. I am not that satisfied with the University's facilities.
Likes (Indian Food): Chipotle - 11$, El Jefe- 11$, Pizza - 2$ a slice, Fries - 3$ in the University.
For Starbucks, there are schemes on weekdays in the University.
Apart from this we have a Postmates app and Door dash too from where we can order food. It gives a lot of discount coupons to students and it’s very beneficial.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are many restrictions to apply for jobs and internships. They have a GPA criteria to be followed. Opportunities for international students are very limited. I am not recommending this university- definitely go to a cheaper one. This university is not worth it.

Great academic opportunities with strong industry connections in Boston.
Tips: Before joining, know that scholarships for international students are limited and focus on co-op opportunities. The transition was smooth, though adjusting to the U.S. culture took time, especially in the diverse academic and social environment. There are no scholarships, but the co-op programme is great for gaining industry experience. Very satisfied with the course, university, and Boston's hub for Biotech opportunities.
Likes (Quality of faculty): High expertise and real-world industry experience. The faculty is highly accessible and approachable encouraging open communication. Emphasis on practical, hands-on learning and case-based teaching. Diverse faculty from various nationalities, offering global perspectives.
Dislikes (Part time work): Many international students are admitted, but on-campus jobs are limited. For F1 visa holders only on-campus is allowed with a maximum of 20hrs/week which is easily manageable alongside academics. The availability of on-campus part-time jobs is often competitive, and students may face difficulties in securing one. For those who find work, the average pay in Massachusetts is 15/hr.

My perspective is that it's too crowded
Tips: 1. The cultural fit is not challenging as all the students and most of the faculty for Masters are Indians.
2. As far as I know there are no scholarships.
3. Selecting courses and faculty and planning your day and semester is very crucial. Assignments while being heavy can be very beneficial if done independently.
Likes (Public transportation): Trains and buses are available in frequent intervals within proximity all over the city with 2$ minimum fare. Redeye is a free cab service available at the Boston campus from evening 6 to morning 6 within a range of 2 miles from the college library but heavy wait times.
Dislikes (Part time work): 1. Campus is overcrowded with students and there are very limited on-campus jobs.
2. Part-time are manageable and completely depend on the individual and workplace.
3. Average payout is 13-18$
RSO, TA, IA, RA, Marino, SquashBusters, Wollaston's, ITS are few part time jobs to look out for.
