• There are 2 campuses – north and south. We were mostly in South campus which houses the engineering department. North campus has the medical department and also a hospital. There are quite a few festivals like Halloween, Diwali and Holi. There are a lot of social events at a smaller level too.
• I was part of a technical group.
• There were dj nights , pizza parties, hackathons and other events. Some events were sponsored by companies like bank of America, Bloomberg and Amazon.
• There was a hackathon where bank of america exposed their API for us to build a business use case around it.

• I used Facebook to find roommates. Most people use Facebook to find houses and Roommates.
• The rent was $1000 per month. The rooms are ok in the Buffalo region. It's an old city and people will have a cultural shock. Candidates who reached early got houses closer. Also, people reach out to seniors to book rooms on their behalf as rooms run out very fast.
• My accommodation was almost 20 minutes away from the bus stop. So it was quite a walk. The bus service is provided by the university from north campus to South campus. During winter the frequency is increased so that people have to wait less during extreme cold.

• 5 campuses, sports complex is really good it has olympic size swimming pool, and the recreation center has almost everything: wrestling, a gym, and badminton also they keep hosting events, so it's worth visiting. Oozefest is the most popular fest; it's more like Mudfest. The library is also really good. they also take frequent outdoor trips.

• A Facebook page is the best way to find accommodation. There is one page called GISA where you will see house postings; usually students take houses near south campus (englewood st, heath st, merimac st) and there is a list of all the house owern number you can message them and ask about their property; you can get a decent house for $450/month.

• I am not aware about extracurricular activities as I never had time to participate.
• On campus jobs like campus dining will be available to students who pursue 2 year program.

• I found accommodation joining UB Housing group. My rent is $400 per month excluding utilities.

• UB provides plenty of facilities to support student life, like libraries—there's one library on the north campus and one on the south campus, which basically offer vast resources for research and study. students who are interested in playing sports can visit state-of-the-art facilities like the Smolinski (I think that's the name) family sport medicine centre and UB Stadium, which is the home for the Buffalo Bulls football team.
• Also, UB has 400+ student clubs and organizations, which helps students pick their interests for non-academic interests. These also include academic clubs, cultural organizations, hobby groups, and special interest councils. It's open for international students and native students as well. We are allowed to explore and join any of these groups through the UBLinked website.

• I chose off-campus housing near the North Campus because it's easy to walk to campus; i dont need to simply wait for a bus to come and go to university. I found my apartment through fb gisa group and continued to follow up in whatsapp later . The apartment was about a 10 min bus ride from the campus and a 20 min walk to campus.
• The monthly rent was approximately $700, including utilities and food, depending on person to person. I definitely recommend other students to even prefer housing in north campus by starting a bit early, as it fills so soon. But there are many Indian students who mainly prefer to stay in south campus because they get private rooms for a lesser price, like around 350-400 usd. whereas in north campus the private room is double than in south campus.

• Campus life is amazing, we have three campus - North, South and Downtown.
• I can't even take the number of clubs available, because there are so many, some that I'm not even aware of.
• We've got 4 huge libraries with all the facilities available.(Numerous Book options, Laptop rental programs, Private study rooms, Research facilities, Recording rooms etc).
• One of the Libraries on South Campus has a infrastucture like Hogwarts (Abbott Library)
• UB is known for hosting events, on any random day, there's one or the other event going on.
• UB has amazing facilities for staying fit, UB Recreation centers(Gym), Sports clubs, Yoga classes, Dance classes, Huge Pools, Basket Ball Couts, Badminton Courts, etc)

• There are pleanty on groups on Facebook, Whatsapp, even ISS(International Student Services) community help in looking for accomadation.
• I was a part of UB Housing group on whatsapp where they posted housing options avaiable, I also had made friends who helped me find if it was legit. I live in a 6 BKH, On the upper unit, we have 4 rooms, I bathroom, 1 kitchen. and on the lower Unit we have 2 rooms, 1 Bathrooma and 1 kitchen. The rent is about $455 per person, and the utilities(gas, electricity,water,wifi) comes upto $100 per person. it can vary based on weather/seasons.
• A lot of houses here have utilities inclusive. And the house options are more on South campus, but classes happen in north, UB has Bus options very frequently travelling accross north and south.

• 3 campuses. North, south, Downtown. North is the main campus and the largest one. All possible services are there like international students, sports, AI, entrepreneurship, library, career counselling, Entrepreneurship, writing help, language help, and mental help. AI club, UB blackstone launchpad, photography club. Student union with lots of fun activities on a regular basis. Oozefest is a popular event.

• Online communities are there on whatsapp and generally students find accommodation from those communities. Either choose subleasing, or you will also find contacts or landlords from those communities.
• There is also one online group, GISA, on facebook where students post rentals or any other household items for sale. Generally, Indian students stay near south campus and will take 20 mins by UB transportation to reach north campus for CS students. Living near north campus is expensive so students prefer south campus.

• There are Diwali festivals bonfire nights and Halloween parties .
• All medical facilities are available on campus and library and sports. The major football arena is also available in the buffalo university’s and buffalo bills is very famous.
• The student organisations also include lot of cultural events such as musical night sports activities and pet pleasures where you can pet a dog.????

• I opted for off campus accommodation. Rent was 500$ monthly. Facilities included are the facilities in a normal house. No challenges encountered by finding this accommodation.
• I would recommend to stay on campus in Amherst manor or in off campus houses as the landlords are pretty good as well.
• Accommodation is 15 minutes from north campus and most stay in south. If you are lucky you will get house in north campus and be sure to apply first.

• Three campuses: North (main campus in Amherst), South (historic Buffalo location), and Downtown (medical corridor),Facilities are pretty sweet:
  North Campus: 1000+ acres with 11 dorms, 5 apartment complexes, 2 libraries
• Sports: State-of-the-art Smolinski Sports Center with hydrotherapy pools
  Study spots everywhere (trust me, you'll need them!)
  - Major events that rock:
  Spring Fest
  Oozefest
  International Fiesta
  Comedy Series
  - Student Life:
  400+ clubs on UBLinked
  7 student councils
  Tons of cultural and sports organizations.
   

• Off-campus
  - Found through the university's group, and contacted agents via seniors.
  - 540$ - including all the utilities and wifi.
• Challenges: To properly verify the condition of the house, most photos are captured in ultrawide, so it creates the illusion of bigger rooms.
• Contact the seniors for help.
• 5 min from south campus. Most of the Indian students stay near the south campus, as it's cheaper.

• My college has 2 main campus one is north campus another is south campus.
• Library, sport ground , medical services , accommodation from one campus to another campus is also provided by university.
• We had a great welcome event hosted in university for new students also for christmas we have lots of events, there are club of Indian students who celebrate all indian festivals
• Ub has good football and volleyball team as well as stadium is also good.

• I had one of friend already studying here.
• I pay around $500 monthly rent.
• I did not face much challenges as i already had some friends here but there are groups on whatsapp and facebook they help a lot in this search.
• My accommodation is 5 minute walk from my campus, and from there i had to catch university shuttle which is free of cost service for students

Great and lively campus. Many places to study peacefully, and a huge library. The campus did have many extracurricular activities and events too. WiFi is always available on campus for students.

Since the on-campus housing was a little expensive for me, I went for off-campus housing. I booked my accommodation before reaching Buffalo. The cost is about $800 per month, and I was sharing a 2-BhK house with one other student. Most of the off-campus housing is shared.
