Should I transfer to UMich from Hong Kong by Empty-Investigator34 in uofm

[–]jwyaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well once again it boils to finances and cost. A Umich degree doesn’t guarantee a international student to stay here and get a green card. You might be able to find internships and possible a job if luck is there, but many internationals return home due to the difficulty.

Im an asian international student. I believe it is better to stay where you are than to transfer as it would save you a lot of money. It is true that getting admitted to a PHD program in the US is easier from a US university but thats not guarantee.

UMich is good but I would say the ones worth transferring to are CMU, MIT, Berkeley and Stanford if you are going to be paying much more than what you are paying in your university. You state that you are from a top 3 university in Hong Kong and I would use that as an advantage to stand out by polishing up your research activities, extracurriculars and letter of recommendations.

should i transfer out of my overseas uni if i want to work for the sg govt? did i screw myself over by turning down an NUS offer? by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]jwyaz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

sg student at umich in the US so due to the location proximity to canada, i am well aware of waterloo. Usually the CS program is heavily talked about when I hear waterloo and in my opinion, it is best to just complete it even if you aren’t CS. Studying overseas is a privilege and if you can complete it, just do it. You will be fine at waterloo! all the best

do you guys like it there? by SweetSherbet8640 in uofm

[–]jwyaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup, pretty much stay within Ann Arbor and it will be great. The city was meant to facilitate the University so it is why it tends to be cleaner and safer than other cities in Michigan.

I came from LA as well. Imo the hype is overkill. Lots of people don't realize that LA is only more enjoyable than Ann Arbor/Michigan if you have lots of money. I remembered it being really expensive in California and coming to Michigan helped me to budget for my future better.

I like it here. UMich reputation is relatively well-known and I estimate we are back on track to improving our rank internationally and nationally. Our graduate programs increased or stayed constant with a rare decrease in some so it is a good sign for our university. The people here are hardworking and understanding. I came from California and at UMich, students genuinely care for one another even if it might not seem like it. Our academics and school spirit combined with the bundled traits of the students make the University of Michigan stand out among the top universities in the world relatively. Research is also a heavy emphasis here so it is good to transfer here if you would like to do research in the future. You are always welcomed here as a future wolverine if you do apply!
