B.Mus from Syracuse University, Syracuse - Fees & Admission Details 2025

• I surfed the internet to find accommodations in the vicinity of the college. There are plenty of websites that give you information about houses in Syracuse.
• The monthly rent is $600, excluding utilities. The utilities cost around $100 per month.
• I started looking for houses in June, due to which there were not many options left, as many students had booked the better houses and I had to settle for a house far away from the college.
• I would say find a house that is closer to the university, as if you miss a bus, you can also walk to the college.
• For the first year my house was 30 minutes away from the college, but now I have moved much closer and it is about 10 minutes away.

• I chose off-campus accommodation, found through Syracuse Quality Living, Zillow and whatsapp groups. Rent was around $600, including utilities.
• A challenge was understanding lease agreements, so I recommend starting the search early and joining housing groups on whatsapp or Telegram.
• My place is 20 minutes from campus, and many Indian students stay in areas like University Hill or Westcott.

There are so many websites to find accommodation, you can try UHA or SQL to find your accommodation. You need to do your research to properly find a house which suits your preference, try to look for a house which is near to a bus stop & grocery shop as it'd be difficult in winter season to walk outside.

I chose this university because the university excels in providing a quality student experience. It also had professors with incredible backgrounds and experience. The infrastructure and maintenance helped me believe in the university's seriousness in delivering a healthy environment to students. On top of all that, the university provided me with a huge scholarship that aided my financial constraints.

I got a teaching assistantship, which provided a huge scholarship along with a monthly stipend. This was a major factor that influenced my decision, and along with this iSchool from Syracuse has an excellent program for Data Science. It is very flexible and has amazing professors.

I chose this university as one of the senior completed his master's from the same university and the university was reputable. Plus the buildings were old school like Hogwarts. Also, some scene from Star Wars was shot outside the stadium called Carrier Dome.

Overall my experience was one of the best periods and I made many friends. The winters were really tough, summer were really fun but mostly quiet due to holidays but overall it is a remembering memory.

For the admission, I gave the GRE exam and TOEFL. I have written a Statement of Purpose and have taken letters of Recommendations from three of the professors who were my mentors and educational advisor during my undergraduate.

Beautiful campus, good location, sports, and school pride, and of course great academics. The housing is great and the student body is diverse enough and is the faculty. It has a good enough reputation and a great social life.

I got a great feedback about the course from seniors and that made me apply for this university.
