Dislikes
- Once you are finalized with the subjects/project topics, its nearly impossible to get it changed after the deadline.
- For international students, its harder to adjust to the study patern of the university, as it is more research based.
- Tuition fee is quite high as a student
- I searched for the accommodations months in advance and I emphasise the need for students to book their accommodations as early as possible. Because as time runs short, the prices skyrocket. Also, the location of accommodation matters a lot—how close it is to the university, the closest market and bus stations, etc.
