What Students Say
Likes
- It resides between three major cities - NewYork , New Jersey and Boston.
- Has a comprehensive course study for Business Analytics
- I don’t think, I like anything other than this.
Dislikes
- First come first basis scholarships. I believe, it should be based on merit and course the student applied.
- Doesn’t have diversified culture and class size is huge.
- Enormous competition from India for on - campus and it literally feels like you are in Indian university.
Firstly, the University of New Haven is my safe option. I applied to different universities like Ucinn, SUNY Buffalo and George Mason. Although I got admitted to UCinn and RIT, considering the fee factor, I opted for UNH. But I regret coming here. It's not a happening university. High competition for On-campus and hated the scholarship process. This is the procedure for admission: Three LORs, SOP, GRE score ( not mandatory), IELTS. Apply on the college website, and usually, we get the decision in 2-4 weeks.
Course Curriculum
The course curriculum is good. My program, Masters of Science in Business Analytics, has 30 credits, which means 10 courses. It includes 7 core courses and 3 electives. Core courses include courses like BA, Data Visualization, Database Management System, Business Forecasting, and Operations management. 3 elective courses can be selected from the Supply chain, Marketing or General departments. Overall, I can say that the curriculum is diverse.

Campus Life
Yeah, I believe people who are involved in campus activities and student clubs can enjoy very well with the fests and all. UNH has many student clubs, including sports, science, arts and religion ( one thing to love). I hate the medical facility. ( my first experience: I fell down in college and went to ask a bandage and they asked me to book an appointment????). Infrastructure - Too small for the publicity they do and for the fee they take.
Placement
Ah, don't ever think that US universities, mainly this particular university, will not have campus placements or campus placement training like Indian universities. They'll have job fairs every semester, and it's your job to connect and network with people to find a job.
Accommodation
I opened for off campus stay. For all the semesters, we stayed within a 2.5-mile radius of my college. Because, On-campus in UNH costs approximately 1000$. I managed my accommodation and living expenses from my loan and sometimes money sent from my parents. For off-campus accommodation, I suggest joining Telegram and WhatsApp groups to find good houses.
Fees
For this university, I feel 100$ - 1100$ per credit is not fair. And the scholarship allotment is so stupid. I took a loan from DCCB ( collateral loan), and the bank disburses a certain amount at the start of each semester for my fees and expenses. Mostly, I used to manage with that.
Scholarship
I specifically didn't apply for a scholarship. While applying for the graduate program, they gave us the dean scholarship ( I don't know what the basis was; firstly, I thought it was merit, but after coming here, most of my friends who had very less cgpa and were completely from different field got 50% scholarship).
