Opportunity

I chose this university as it was a Public university and it had great research opportunities. It was not that expensive as well and had great on campus job opportunities. The college life was great like I got exposure to the American culture and American sports since I was working at the recreational center as a basketball ref, and I made a lot of American friends being an international student, it was a great opportunity for me....Read More

Although I looked at multiple choices like University of Virginia, Southside Virginia I applied for a single college here in USA which was totally due to constant pressure from my aunt who lives here always wanting for me to continue my education in USA, due to which I chose the one which looked affordable and closest to her place. The university also had good student graduation rate which also was a major factor. I never completed my application process for other universities than Rowan as I had already set my mind on a single one and did it just to make my aunt happy. The admission process was super easy you just have to complete the application and pay a fee of 100$ refundable fee if you join the university. I only had done my IELTS as I had very good grades on my physics, biology, chemistry and math in High School and didn't feel like putting much more effort on another examination right after my High School finals. Although my grades were good for English, I completed IELTS just so I could check out the box on the English test I have completed where I received 7.5. The overall admission experience was good went really smoothly for me the mails were responded earlier than other institution as told by my friends.  I applied for fall intake and as it would be the closest intake I could apply for right after receiving my high school graduation certificate. I started applying during early November after getting my acceptance letter I than proceeded to apply for VISA interview which was after 4 months during which time I completed my placement tests and started preparing for my interview and on April I was done with my interview and came to US at around 5th of August.  ...Read More

I have been accepted in every college that I have applied to. I got admissions from 1. Rowan University. 2. University of Massachusetts, Lowell. 3. Florida Institute of Technology. 4. Fairleigh Dickinson University. 5. Missouri University of Science and Technology. 6. New Jersey Institute of Technology. There are no rejections in my applied colleges but from New Jersey Institute of technology has offered me a alternate pathway to Masters in Computer science. I think as I am from Electronics and communications background, they might want me to complete the alternate certification instead and then to Masters in Computer science.  I have seen the course curriculam and compared my course curriculum with all the Universities that I applied to. I feel Rowan University has direct Masters in Cybersecurity, but all the others has Cyberseucirty but they are much focused on Computerscience related subjects. Process is same for all the colleges, I have taken GRE (313), TOEFL(92) and submitted officially from testing center to Rowan Univeristy. And have taken LORS from the professors in my Undergraduate college (SVCE, Bangalore) and submitted to Rowan Univeristy. Also submitted the certificates (10th, 12th, Undergradution 8 sems certificates, PDC, Bachelors Completion Certificate). There are no challenges in the admission process, but I feel it takes lot of time for the international centers in each college to process the admission in timely manner( I got all the admissions in 12-20 days after applying to them. 1. I have applied for Fall 2024 intake. 2. I have started my process in March 2023. I have started preparing and given my GRE and scored 313 in that. 3. In June 12th, 2023 I have given my TOEFL and scored 92. 4. After that I started applying for colleges from June-July 2023. 5. I got my admissions by end of July. 6. Applied for I20 from Rowan Univeristy. I got I20 in september 2023 for Spring 2024 6. Actually I have applied for Spring 2024 intake and deferred my admission to fall 2024 as I got a good job oppurtunity in Delhi. 7. After deferring my admission to Fall 2024, finally on June 19th I myself booked my Visa slots Biometrics in Delhi ( As I am in Delhi) and Visa Interview in Chennai. 8. Finally completed all the process by July 18th with my Visa Interview scheduled on that day....Read More
