Hostel:

A feasible option is to rent an apartment that costs around 3000$/month.

I chose this university because of its location. San Jose State University is located in California and there are many companies here.

Campus Life:

There are plenty. But something like baseball or football( rugby outside US) might come across as boring to Indian students. The university has a state of the art library and athletics club with rock climbing, boxing and yoga session which I utilized and enjoyed to the fullest.

Hostel:

Everybody goes for accomodation outside the university, which is cheaper. The university also gives access to pantry where students can get milk, oil, groceries fruits etc for free, which helps to Mitigate the costs
