“I learned how to be on time every day and the teaching methods are completely different than in India. At GTU, one exam covers the entire semester; here we have fewer topics to recall for an exam but more exams throughout the course.”

“The education system here is completely different. Teaching assistants provided help sessions outside the regular class schedule that help to understand the material better. The instructors are also very flexible with helping students out.”

“My favorite experience here is communicating with people from other cultures and countries. For example, I’ve made friends from Spain. I think this is the most valuable part of the program – I’ll miss it.”

“Everything is online, which helped me to have a better learning experience. We’re still going to the classroom, but we submit our homework and most of the projects via the internet. Everybody is open-minded here in Manhattan.”
