- Northwestern university is one of the prestigious universities in Mid West. People recognise the name the moment you mention it.
- The flexibility to take elective courses across schools makes it a great place for people with broad interests.
- Northwestern’s lakefront location provides stunning views and there are plenty of spots for both study and chilling.
Dislikes
- Northwestern’s academic rigour is very high, and the workload can be intense. The quarter system, which divides the academic year into four ten-week terms, can feel fast-paced, with constant exams and assignments.
- Since it’s a private university so the tuition is high.
- The winters are harsh in Evanston making the cold very difficult to bear.
Campus Life
- There are a total of 3 campuses, one in Evanston, one in Chicago, and the other in Doha, Qatar.
- There are 3 libraries which are huge : Deering, Main library and Mudd Library
- For sports, there is Henry Crown, which has arenas for all the popular sports like basketball, tennis, swimming pools, etc
- There are multiple events that keep happening around the year.
- There are a lot of clubs for international students that help in building the community and celebrating festivals together.
Accommodation
- There is a local property dealer called Peak Properties. I got to know about them from my seniors and they explained the entire process.
- There are other apps, such as Zillow, which is used by many people. My accommodation is 1.2 miles away from the university. My monthly rent with utilities is around $650.
- The only suggestion would be to start early to find the cheaper apartments or else you’ll end up getting the costly ones.
Accommodation
There are residential dorms and colleges for students. You can opt to be in singles, doubles, or triples. The cost is around 15000 USD for a year.
Got into an honors program called MMSS, which has a campus but still within the city parameters of Chicago, great academics, top 10 ranked school, good student life including athletics, clubs.
Accommodation
I live in a residential college, which has been greatly beneficial to me in terms of finding friends and academic support. Again, I've been required to live on campus, so rooming on campus has not been challenging, and my random roommate has been fantastic!
First, I'm a Questbridge Scholar who matched with Northwestern, so I was required to go here by contract. I ranked it because I thought it offered so many different opportunities, because of its location, emphasis on not limiting yourself to one area of study, etc. People at Northwestern were kinder and so willing to help me out/answer any questions during my tour, which made me feel right at home.
Campus Life
Campus infrastructure is great. Please check YouTube videos by NU which will help you get the real peek into it.
Accommodation
I'm staying off campus. The halls at NU are expensive but have great facilities.
Campus Life
