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.
Course Curriculum
I have to take a total of 120 credit hours over the course of my program. The 120 credits include several general studies requirements. Be it humanity's, social science, natural science, subjects related to my major of CS. Some courses are so simple and easy that they are what I like to call 'GPA boosters' you put in the in the minimum effort and still get good grades, which helps the GPA and takes a share of the required credits you need to complete.

Fees
A tuition is paid every semester. As an international student I have received a scholarship of 13.5K USD for an entire year. And that is paid through a platform called Flywire. I did not have any other expenses since I lived off campus without dorms or the meal plan.
Scholarship
Upon enrolment, almost every international students receives some scholarship. The criteria to renew 100% of this is by having CGPA of 3.0 and above and completing 30+ credit hours in first year. The stipend and all rewards comes from having taking part in small club projects so you make connections with experienced individuals and they can refer you as a worthy candidate.

ASU offers a vibrant and diverse campus life that caters a wide range of interests and activities. Fests : Homecoming- a longstanding tradition at ASU, homecoming is a weeklong celebration that includes parade, football game, etc. Culture test : a celebration of the diverse cultures at ASU.
Hostel
I chose to live off campus. I bought groceries, cooked, sometimes ate out. And sometimes due to hectic work load I often skipped meals or just ate one fulfilling meal for the entire day which was a good economic decision.
