Master of Science in Information Systems - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Washington

4.1

Good course structure. Public transportation is easy to access.

Tips: Culture is definitely present, however, it's great that people are punctual and they respect others a lot. They love to engage in small talk, which is sometimes fun. I did not avail of any scholarships because they don't provide those to international students. I am very satisfied with the university, the course is good only, the country is also good as far as I've known.

Likes (Public transportation): Seattle campus has great public transport, may it be the bus system or the underground metro. It's absolutely easy to travel around however it does take time.

Dislikes (Internships): I believe the career fair provided by the university are okay-ish and may not be that relevant to the opportunities I am looking for. However, considering the market is very bad right now, I probably can't blame them for the same. They also have career services like resume review and writing guidance which is good.

A perfect college in a perfect location with the best summer.

Tips: The culture shock is there and also be ready to face a lot of ups and downs. I was a graduate research assistant at my college and make sure you have some research experience in undergrad. I am very satisfied with my course and country and also the university.

Likes (Student Life): Student life is very good probably the best experience of your life. You have everything be it gyms, sporting events and various events and you are going to enjoy it a lot. Also, you have events at college where you can have the best time of your life and you get exposed to a variety of cultures.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Getting an H1B visa is very hard and most of the companies do not want to sponsor international students. Finding jobs is hard and getting accustomed to a new culture is never easy and sometimes you will miss family.

MS in Computer Science & Engineering - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Washington

Great exposure for international students.

Tips: It is a commuter college mostly. On-campus jobs are moderately available and it's an amazing opportunity of exposure too. International students have multiple opportunities to socialize and network with the help of the events organized. Student groups are active too.

Dislikes (Safety): The campus and on-campus housing are safe. But the locations around are not as safe. The campus security ensures safety in the nearby locations and is available 24/7. They are accessible too. In general, weekdays are comparatively safer compared to weekends.

University of Washington is great!

Tips: It's an amazing university with great opportunities once you graduate. The sheer beauty of the campus is enough to keep you going. The opportunity for scholarships for my programme is limited (1 or 2 out of 60 students). I am thoroughly enjoying my time in Seattle.

The university is very open and welcoming with friendly faculty.

Tips: Student life is very good and you have a lot of opportunities to participate in a variety of activities. However, getting an H1B visa is very hard and most companies don't want to sponsor international students. Finding jobs is hard, and getting accustomed to a new culture is never easy. You will miss your family sometimes. Scholarships for abroad students are provided by many organizations and the government of India. I'm very satisfied with my course, country, and university.

Likes (Value for money): The university has a well-developed campus, excellent infrastructure, and a quality library and labs. It also has excellent placement in top multinational companies that provide excellent salary packages.

Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer to cook my own food, but if you don't like cooking, you can order food from restaurants near campus. The restaurants on campus and nearby have good food, but they don't serve Indian food.
