Course Curriculum
8
- The difficulty level was moderate for people with the technical background but was hard for people with no technical background. the course was available for people of all backgrounds and hence it was not mentioned earlier that the coding background is necessary. but we had almost 3 courses which were core courses that required coding in Python and Bash.
- According to me, this ambiguity regarding coding experience was a negative aspect.
Fees
- $1000 for every credit. We were allowed to enrol in 18 credits for a semester. The maximum limit of the fees was $12000 and the minimum was $9000, as the minimum credits for international students were 9.
- I personally found the campus housing pretty expensive; hence, I rented an apartment off campus.
- My rent was $350 and groceries and my utility bill were paid separately. Monthly, my expense was $500.
