• As i previously mentioned, I chose off-campus housing. i contacted mac properties in saint louis they have lots of properties around the SLU campus and that made it easy for me to get the nearest apartment to the campus and affordable.
• My monthly rent was $1500, shared by 4 people. In my apartment i have a hall, two bedrooms, two washrooms, a kitchen, a laundry room and a small storage room.
• As I only felt like walking for everything during the initial days to search for the apartment when I landed in the USA, if i need something to buy. because we do not know the transportation facilities on the first day itself, we need to learn by making new friends. later i bought a car for myself, which helped me to survive all through my master's programme.
• My apartment is 500 metres from SLU campus; we stayed 4 Indians together.

• I am not sure about securing jobs as they were all kept secret as professional.
• Average salary range will be around 100k per year. It will be depending on the location of the job as well.

• Finding a job after graduating is difficult in the current market condition. Regular career fairs will be conducted by the university career services to improve academic and industry relations. If you are lucky enough, you might get some good contacts that help you get a job/internship.
• Having prior experience on a similar job profile in India will greatly enhance the chances of getting placed after your MS.

• I joined a telegram group, which led me to a WhatsApp group later where the students who were already living in St. Louis were helping us to find accommodation. I stayed with my seniors for the first 15 days. While living there, I reached out to the leasing offices around that area and found an apartment 1 mile away from the campus. Our's was a 3BHK, which we leased for USD 1500/- a month. The leasing manager was kind enough and took only one month's rent amount as a security deposit from us.
• I recommend future students to check with STL City Wide apartment rental agency for leasing apartments near campus. They are located on 1N Taylor Ave., St. Louis, MO, 63108. You can also reach them through email before your flight and complete the paperwork so that you can have your apartment ready by the time you reach St. Louis.

The post-study placement and research opportunities for students in the program are typically promising. Many students secure positions in reputable companies across various industries. Companies often visit the campus to recruit students for roles relevant to their program, with opportunities ranging from entry-level positions to more specialized roles. The placement process is generally well-organized, with career services providing support and resources to students. Median salaries for graduates can vary depending on the industry and job role.

My overall experience at Saint Louis University has been enriching and fulfilling. The diverse community, rigorous academics, and supportive faculty have all contributed to a vibrant learning environment. Engaging in extracurricular activities and exploring research opportunities have further enhanced my college experience, fostering personal and professional growth.

Unlike India, here I haven't seen companies mass recruiting students by visiting campus. So everyone will have their own struggle later on. But right now the scenario is not so good.

It's a good experience overall for me. Coming to the flexible classes, college placements, economical life style and for many other reasons I feel its really good.

I haven't attended any placements but in the University website it's claimed that a lot of companies are visiting for placement.

Overall the University is very good. It has good infrastructure. The University provides a great opportunity for students to perform research study. On the whole professors mostly focus on developing practical practical skills. Our University has a student to faculty ratio of 1:15 by this it is easy to interact with the professors and other faculty. The University also encouraging students in extra curricular activities like Sports, quizzes and also provide other encouragement like movie nights etc.
