Arizona State University (ASU) Reviews and Ratings

• I used Facebook market=place , WhatsApp groups of students already there. Kaplan groups and The most problematic thing is finding clean houses, Tempe has a huge problem of bugs, and if the students do not live clean it will have cockroaches in the house.
• When searching for house only take the one with new lease, do not take sub-leased apartments as whatever damage the previous students have done will be on you and you have to pay the charge if you don't find any other new incoming student to sub-lease it.
• Here they have very strict sub-leasing rules and want the house in new condition so only take up a new lease from the apartment. My accommodation is 30 min by walk and 10 mins by bus.

• For finding accommodation, I used online platforms like rent.com and groups on Discord and whats-app.
• The monthly rent for the entire unit is $1600, including utilities like water, trash, etc.
• The main challenge was finding roommates and sending money for the application fee and leasing documents before coming to the US.
• My recommendation for future students is to start early, as good apartments that are close to campus are in high demand.
• My apartment is 1.5 miles from the campus. Most of the Indians stay within 2 miles of the main campus.

• I applied to 5 ish. I remember applying to DePaul, pace, UMBC, University of Michigan, ASU and Indiana Univeristy Bloomington 
• Got accepted by DePaul and ASU. Pace rejected me and the rest of the application I did not complete. 
• Confirmed admission from DePaul and ASU 
• Rejection from PACE 
• I was accepted by DePaul, ASU, and CSU, but Pace rejected me. I didn't complete the applications for the others after I decided to accept ASU's offer. I applied to Pace mostly because their application was free, though I’m unsure why I was rejected.
• ASU was an obvious choice for me because it's close to California, has a strong alumni network, and offers a great UX program. I got a lot of help from Manya with my admissions—they took care of everything, from my LORs and SOP to my GRE and IELTS exams. They even assisted with my educational loan and visa process. While ASU doesn’t require GRE scores, having an IELTS score of 7.5 is recommended.
• Admission process-  I took help from manya so they were partnered with ASU so they took care of the process. If my memory serves me right, I had to do my sop, LORs, portfolio, and that’s it. Got a letter saying I was accepted. 
• Eligibility criteria- Now they accept Duolingo too so ASU is a cash grab Univeristy, everyone has a place here :) just have to apply and have a decent profile
• Admission experience- Not really, like I mentioned Manya people took care of it and it was smooth. 
• Intake- Fall 2023 and everyone says fall is the best time to go because of availability of jobs around graduation time 
• Admission process timeline- I had all my documents ready and taken my exams a year before so all I had to do was upload and Application happened in March and acceptance in april. 
   

• I opted for off-campus accommodation, which I found to be a great choice in terms of affordability and convenience. I found the place through online platforms and recommendations from student groups on Telegram and Discord.
• The monthly rent is $450, which is quite reasonable, and the accommodation includes basic amenities such as internet and utilities.
• One of the challenges I faced was the speed of securing the place due to high demand so speed was key. For future students, I suggest that you start your search early and join student groups for leads. Most Indian students tend to stay in similar off-campus housing near the university with mine located very close to campus.

I chose this college because of the location and rank of the college. I like it because many Indian students come here. The rank of MSCS in this college is quite good for decent admission rate.

I received admission offer from both ASU and UTD. So in order to choose my college, I connected with some of the existing students at that time from both universities on LinkedIn. I also researched about the course curriculum, placement opportunities, faculty before finalising my college. After evaluating all these aspects, I finally chose ASU which was better in terms of almost everything.

ASU is very good with its coursework especially for masters in Electrical Engineering ,along with the faculty who were experts in this particular domain. Also the labs and cleanrooms in this university were ranked in top list which would help me gain practical knowledge. ASU is a very good university with super diversification and excellent coursework provided with world's best faculty to guide every individual.

I decided to study in this college because of Location, weather, sports and work opportunities. Overall, the experience is great, lots of resource, but one has to know how to use them. Huge university so one can socialise and make friends and professional contacts. But it wouldn't be serve in a platter.

I chose this college mainly because of the specialization options available while pursuing a bachelor’s The experience was pretty wholesome, a blend of cultural inclusivity and career growth.

The admission process was simple, I was in touch with an institute called Aspen research. I had not decided to go to ASU, but then, after I got my offer letter, I made it an option. I discovered that they are not so bad at research and programming, and maybe the time I am there, their ranking and facilities will advance.
