How is life at IIT Madras for a North Indian?

Life at IIT Madras for a North Indian may be different from life at other colleges or universities in India, particularly for students who are from a different region of the country. However, IIT Madras is a diverse and inclusive community, and I am sure that North Indian students will find a welcoming and supportive environment there.

Additionally, IIT Madras offers a range of resources and support services to help students adjust to life on campus.

Food: Inside the campus, there are 5 South Indian messes, 3 North Indian messes, and 1 Jain mess. So food is plenty for students from every culture. However, the North Indian mess food may not be as per the taste, and thus many end up choosing South Indian which is much better. 

Outside the campus, eateries are limited to South Indian food mostly except Biryani and Fast food like Domino and KFC which are in plenty. 

Language: The language barrier exists only outside the campus. Inside, English and Hindi are enough to converse with peers and faculty.

Climate: The temperature and humidity are high here usually and might trouble many. But inside the campus, the greenery and tall trees block the sunlight and thus a cool climate can be observed.

IIT Madras authentically teaches University is Diversity and trust me no cultural difference will affect your amazing experience here.
