Firstly, I transferred to this because I had my friends there and also had the major I was wanting to study. I saw that I had a chance to build my resume and make myself a better person in this college which is the reason I chose this one. Besides, all of these reasons the whole college community and faculty members are very helpful and want to see you moving forward. The international student department here is a gem, they have to help me in every single step since I came to UNK. Most importantly, I got attracted to this college due to its opportunities for on-campus jobs and involvement in various organizations for students of any kind.

Exams

I was very interested in technology while I was growing and was always curious about how they work. While I completed my high school my interest in cyberspace and telecommunications kept growing which is the main reason I chose to be in the Information technology field. There is no any special eligibility to participate in the program. You're going to be studying numbers of programming classes which will be tough. I got 7 in IELTS and 1180 in SATs which didn't really matter to get into the program.

Yes, you get a lot of on-campus working opportunities. All you gotta do is grab a chance, you can get all kinds of jobs you want according to your major a preference.

Some international students choose to stay on campus, which is a little expensive. But looking for roommates and living off-campus is cheaper and totally possible. You will get a lot of off-campus residence apartments which is within walking distance to campus. The international student association will be very helpful in any kind of concern you will have.
