University of Rochester Reviews and Ratings

• 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.

• I live off campus; there are many Facebook groups and WhatsApp groups that will help you find housing.
• I pay $1150 for a 2-bedroom apartment, which includes electricity.
• In the beginning, its usually difficult to find but nothing serious
• Yes, I can help out if anyone is looking for.
• I stay kind of 15 minutes walking from campus; most Indian students live nearby where I live.

• 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 chose Boston University because it is a prestigious graduate school and has great research and a great BME program. I wanted to live in Boston because I have lots of friends there, I like the city, and it's close to my family. It is also a great area for getting a job in biotech after I graduate. My experience as a graduate student at BU has been pretty good. It can be tough to start a master's degree without a lot of knowledge of what it will be like, but my advisor is helpful, and I have taken a lot of interesting classes. Yes, I had to submit letters of recommendation for my graduate program from professors in my undergraduate program.
