- Support for International Students: There are many programs to support the international students; they have a great ISO office, which is run by international students themselves. ISO was available 24 hrs.
- Huge Amount of Scholarships: LU has a policy where they try to offer 99% of international students scholarships based on their GPAs. Most of the international students get 50% of the scholarship in fees.
- Location of University: LU was located in a mid-sized city called Beaumont, Texas. In Beaumont the cost of living was cheap. Most of the students' monthly expenses do not exceed $750, including housing, food, and travel, which is great for international students.
Dislikes
- Campus Jobs: Due to the greater number of international students, most of the students don't get on-campus part-time jobs.
- Tech Jobs: Beaumont has a lot of industries, so for students who are aiming to get into big tech, it will be a drawback. Need to move near metro cities after graduation, like Houston, Dallas, and Austin.
- Research Work: Due to its low rank in research institutes, students don't get more funds for research.

- Full-time jobs depend upon various factors, like the market situation and students' experience in the programs. Like for Lamar University programs like civil, biochemical, and chemical engineering and engineering management, you will be able to secure a job within 6 months of graduation due to its campus location and its tie-ups with industry. And programs like MIS and CS have fewer advantages because of their fewer tie-ups with the tech industry. The average salary for LU grads is 85000/yr.
- And most of the on-campus placement drives are for non-IT roles. IT roles don't have any advantage. Students tend to find their own placement on online job market portals. And in LU has.
- I have opted for off-campus; I have found my accommodation through my seniors. And here in Beaumont near the university, we get a lot of options to stay close to the university. My monthly shared room cost me 450 per month, including the current bill, gas bill, and maintenance cost. I haven't had any issues finding and securing accommodation because of my connections with seniors.
- Based on my experience, I ask every future student to connect with seniors before coming to the US. Because it gives you an unfair advantage in figuring out things. My accommodation was within 1 mile of the campus, and most of the Indian students stay in Edge Apartments or University Drive Apartments.

- Likes- professor's way of teaching, making us able to understand the concept and assignments help us a lot for interviews
Placement

- It depends on the minimum number of years of experience a student has because if you don't have experience and you are trying to get a job with just a degree, it's going to be tough.
- At the start – 60K/yr to 80k/Yr
- Through various portals like linkedin, ziprecruiter, indeed, dice etc, students should try to target their job role from the start and start preparing for it and have to do at least 2 certifications related to that role, which helps them get a job a little faster, because here they consider certifications as equivalent to experience.
- Rent would be typically around 1200-1700 for 2 beds.

- Organised online mode of study.
- How they conduct job fairs and build our connections on various other events
- Wide diversity of people, some are students some are working
Dislikes
- Nothing as such, just that they are not concerned about your presence in the class or you actively participating.
- Deadlined are tight. You will simply get a zero and there is no scope of correcting it.
- Sometimes there are people with arms and ammunitions that enter college we get to know through alerts.

- Here, the job market is good. They do need human resources for every field, just that we should know which field to explore.
- I had an activity for one of my subjects to explore the data entry jobs for my course and I could see they offer $60k - $110k for research or data analysts.
- I have seen accommodations in the vicinity of colleges and universities.Mostly apartment systems are there but sometimes you can also find a proper home.
- It has a proper system where you submit your resume and documents to get the accommodations.
