Internstional Student life at NJIT

Hostel:

Generally, people prefer off campus accomodation.

I wanted an international exposure. I thought of USA and got to know about this course. NJIT had the program called 'Flexpath', through which international students could complete their semester online. I did my fall semester online. I saved a lot of money because i did not have to pay for housing, residence or anything else. I started for my visa preparation. I was here in mid Jan 2021 to continue my semester. The difference between online and in-person becomes thinner in NJIT. In fall 2021, classes were in-person.

Genuinely a great place to live

Hostel:

I'm living off campus it's better to stay outside price will be fine if shared staying. On-campus housing is high.

You can complete your Master's in 3 semesters and it's nearby New York great place to stay and explore. Lots of start-up companies are there around campus.

The Benefits of Being a NJIT Student

Hostel:

I am a commuter and live at home since I do live nearby. It's only a 5-minute bus ride and a 15-minute train ride away. I do buy a monthly pass for the public transportation I use and there are student discounts offered to students. Students can get up to 25% off the monthly passes. I do know quite a bit about being a resident on campus even though I am a commuter. We have two freshman resident halls and during their freshman and sophomore year, they are required to get an unlimited meal plan. Commuters can also get a meal plan that can be flexible if they'd like although there are plenty of restaurants nearby that offer a student discount since there are 3 other universities besides NJIT in that area. We have two other resident halls on campus for the upperclassmen along with honors resident halls on campus. Nearby off-campus is available right across the from NJIT that is not affiliated with NJIT on anyway.

I picked NJIT because of its small class sizes compared to the other 7 schools I applied to. Since I had a fee waiver for the application I did not have to pay the $75 application fee. After applying I heard back from them within 2 weeks about my decision. They do look for higher math scores and want you to take at least up to pre-calc in high school since math is deemed to be difficult here. NJIT has a tutoring center for all subjects so it is really easy to find help when one seeks help.

My experience at NJIT

Hostel:

Off-campus is best for my needs as it's a lot cheaper. I know to cook, so I usually cook at home. On campus dorms don't have kitchens, forcing to opt for a meal plan which is way too costly. Luckily, my off-campus house is walking distance away from the college. So it feels like I'm on campus only.

The course structure for Data Science was the best amongst other universities. As my area of interest is in Big data and Machine Learning, Professor Roshan Usman and Professor Chase Wu are the best in the industry with their ongoing research projects in the data science field.

NJIT review

Hostel:

living on campus is pretty expensive. there is a city called Harrison near to the Njit. Harrison is cheap for living and all other stuff. Rent here is around 500$ a month.

I liked the course structure and the location. compared to my other admits NJIT was on priority list because of the location(near to the new york), which is kind of cheaper. and talking about the courses, professors are really good here, as they have more of practical concerns. and they are really helpful.
