Campus Life

  • The college has three campuses; the river campus is main with cs, ds, business school, optics, etc
  • Second is medical centre, and third is Eastman, which is for music and arts
  • All facilities are available at my campus (river campus). There are more than 5 libraries, sports: badminton, gym, squash, basketball, football field and so much more. medical services are present in all campuses, especially for university students
  • meliora weekend is a huge campus festival that happens annually, There are many clubs one can join according to their interest (mostly undergrads, since grad students dont have much time)
  • There are many organizations that make you feel at home, like international student organisations and the Rochester Indian Association. There are also sports teams (mostly undergrads) and many cultural events organized by respective organisations. Such as RIA does indian events, ISO does events for Chinese, Indian, etc students

Accommodation

  • There are student housing even for grad students. Apart from that, you have apps and groups if one wants to live off campus. people are putting up rent postings all the time; you just have to look for it at the right place
  • I have a 2-bedroom apartment, rent $1200, so it comes down to $600/person, which is very good with student housing
  • I had no challenges since I secured a graduate housing apartment
  • My recommendation would be to go for graduate housing (its a lottery system, but most get it). make sure to opt in when they release it and you're good to go
  • 20-minute walk to uni from my place, but you don't have to walk since there are university shuttles every 20 minutes. Indian students mostly stay at grad housing.

  • I got my apartment through the graduate housing application, my monthly rent is $550 per person in a 2 bedroom unfurnished apartment which includes all utilities.
  • Since apartments are provided on a lottery based system it was stressful to find a place and I had to keep checking with other people if they needed a roommate in case they got themselves an apartment.

  • 2 Campus:
  1. River Campus and
  2. Eastman School of Music.
  • River Campus is the main campus with a football field, gym, swimming pool, baseball field, tennis courts, basketball courts etcetera. Dandelion Day and Meliora Weekend are two exciting times with guest speakers, food trucks, games on the quad etcetera.
  • There are a few cultural student organizations such as the Hindu Student Association, Muslim Student Association, among others - which allow the opportunity to meet other Indians!

  • I opted for living on-campus, and it costs roughly $11000 per academic year.
  • There were no challenges faced, and it's pretty easy to get a single after the first year! In my third year, I have a single which is quite spacious and even has a sink.
  • One can find accommodation in college town (off-campus) as well, but then financial aid gets lower too - so I think for international students staying on campus would be the best idea.

I don't participate in much being a graduate student, but there are lots of options and nice buildings on campus.

I live in an apartment in Allston, MA, near campus with 3 roommates, and we pay $850 per month each, which is more affordable than most. Many people pay closer to $1300-$1500 per month, even with roommates.
