My advice to future students would be would be, It is a small and varied international community, a lot of work and fun too, research oriented, creative thinking, originality important.
I had to take GRE and TOEFL examination as a part of the admission process. A good score makes the admission easy. For a PhD, a good research experience is a must. I attended coaching classes for GRE in Chennai and this gave me a lot of confidence and made me aware of the real test experience. I did not hire a counselor because I think for PhD one needs to look onto the research that is going on,which is not understood by a counselor. I needed the students visa. Being a PhD in Biology, I had to wait a lot for security clearance. I did a decent amount of research to find a students discount and excess baggage from Lufthansa. The flight was very comfortable. I landed in Logan Airport, Boston, MA which is 30 minutes from TUFTS. The University did not have a Meet and Greet program.
I have a fellowship for my research. PhDs are usually fully funded with a decent stipend.
I am very happy with the research and the way it is structured. Altogether the professors are really good, however, few of them can do better. The lecture halls are alright but the library is very well equipped.
I live in off campus housing. The sports facilities are excellent. The social scene is Boston is very good and the night life is rocking!! Boston has very long and snowy winters. There are several societies from different countries, e.g. ISAT for Indian students. Acclimatisation, accommodation, get-togethers, social celebrations are few things the international society handles.
I dont know about the placement cell. Work permit is pretty easy once you have a job and the company is willing to sponsor H1B.Yes ,there is an alumini society. There are networking events. Dont think thats very efficient in placement.
Localizado em Massachusetts.
