University of Michigan is multi dimensional with good academics.

Tips: Students should not stress about their studies or other things, as things will happen automatically. Instead, students should be active and explore as many things as they can. There are almost 20 activities offered each week at the college, and students should participate in them all.

Likes (Post study jobs): There are many companies available which are providing visa sponsorship. Students can get good jobs with a good paycheck if they have some domain knowledge and expertise. All sectors are good here to get some good j...

Thriving in a diverse and challenging academic environment.

Tips: Students should be prepared for a rigorous academic environment, plenty of extracurricular activities, and a diverse student body. Time management is crucial to balance coursework and activities. The transition was smooth but adapting to Michigan's weather and a more independent, fast-paced academic life required adjustment. The diversity on campus made cultural adaptation easier. I got a teaching assistant position, which covers my tuition completely and offers a generous stipend on top. I'm hi...

Interesting and one of a kind University.

Tips: It is important to ensure your safety by being aware about your locality and potential danger owing to the crime rate. My overall experience has been positive as the locals are friendly and there are student-friendly options to explore as well. You should also try to be a part of the communities and campus culture as that can help you further in social engagement.

It truly changed my life for the better

Tips: A very well-balanced university for a range of fields. There are many opportunities to engage with interests outside your main field of study. Great options to save on living costs. If you enjoy a small-town life with pretty much most amenities, Ann Arbor is a great choice.

Weather here will take time adjusting to.

Tips: The winters are too cold and it's not easy at first but you get used to it. I am satisfied with the course and the country. Getting a scholarship for international students is difficult but not impossible. I take care of my rent and food and all the expenses with the part-time job and only need to worry about the college fees.

Likes (Part time work): On campus jobs are always available and are pretty easy to get. And managing part-time depends on the person, but for me, it's been pretty easy. 16 dollars an hour is the ...

One of the best Robotics Program

Tips: Transition was not very tough but the cold weather was an issue. Since it snows a lot here, the Winters are tough but the environment and the city are very nice and beautiful. It is a college town so it has many culturally diverse restaurants and bars. Scholarships are rare and the tuition fee is very high so make the decision keeping that in mind. I am very satisfied with the university and programme since I have a lot of freedom in course selection and there are many opportunities.

Likes (Student Life): The college...

UMich is good for research.

Tips: 1. TA/RAship opportunities are very limited for Master's students. But once you get these roles, your tuition fee is excused and you also receive a handsome monthly stipend 2. The tuition fee is quite high compared to other universities 3. College reputation in the field of IC & VLSI (my field) is very high. Recruiters know of this as well 4. College is very good for research opportunities

Likes (Safety): I have not heard of any violent activity. The city is pretty safe to go for walks post-midnights as well. T...
