Dislikes
- Being in Stuttgart which is a developed city, the cost of rent and living is expensive compared to other German cities. This extends to facilities inside the University.
- Although you can find student jobs(HiWi) in the campus, they are not available for all the domains. It may take a long time to find a student job in most cases and the responses from Professors are delayed.

There is a Deutschland Stipendium Scholarship, which offers 300 Euros per semester to a student until their end of studies.
