• 85-95% secures employment within 6 months.

• Through networking on LinkedIn, attending events, job fairs, etc
• I don't have any connects yet with the ones who are placed after graduating.
• Major companies such as JP Morgan, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, Lending Club, Bank of America, Deutsch bank and many more.

• I surfed the internet, visiting websites of property dealers, apartment rental companies. (eg: Apartments.com).
• Monthly rent for 2Bed 1bathroom for me is $475 base rent. utilities add upto $50 which makes $520 including utilities. Facilities such as a dishwasher, radiant heater, oven, fridge, electric stove was provided. We have a common laundry room (paid).
• One of the challenge was the price, some were high which are close to the university and others were lower, which are very far from the university. Another challenge was finding the right roommates. Thankfully, I paired up with the right roommates who have similar interests as me.
• My suggestion is to start finding apartments and roommates as soon as possible to avoid delays and any challenges. Start early. Use whatsapp groups, discord to pair up with other peers and find roommates. Ask property manager to give a virtual tour of the surroundings and the apartment to ensure that everything is fine before flying. Connect to seniors and ask about their experience and take their advice.
• My accommodation is like 5 minutes by train ( depends on where you want to go because every station is connected to the campus) and 10 minutes by bus. Most indian students stay in Salt lake downtown.

Research Opportunities are plenty. However currently students are struggling to get jobs due to the poor market coupled with the location disadvantage.

The University is great overall. Great faculty and courses. Part-time work is plenty and TA/RA opportunities are better.

The university accepts almost everyone. You’d have to have horrible grades not to get in. There is no smart unless you are working. We don’t bust any companies, they do campus tours though.

My college experience has been amazing because of the staff and campus resources.

Most students are employed in the tech industry. Utah has a growing tech park. In academics many people go for a postdoc research experience. Adobe has their headquarters in Utah. Intel, micron and national labs such as Sandia are regular visitors in the campus and also during the career fair.

Nice city, good ranking, decent department, comparatively cheaper city than California or New York and supportive administrative staff.

The location was ideal given that the campus is within Salt Lake City, but remains separate from the city, which allows for a 'college campus feel' of living rather than city living. It is also close to the number of our outdoor sites.

Public transit, Affordability, Reputability. My granddad and dad went here. I learned to love the campus as a 'second home' after I came to classes with my dad when he came back for his Master's degree.

The university organizes job fairs and a lot of local companies visit them, but that doesn't do much for placement. You've to apply online to most places no matter what happens at the job fairs.

I found the faculty and courses to be interesting and there's a high chance of getting funded here. It has good research opportunities; although I did not take advantage of them.

That is quite impressive but it depends on the student. Here in US, nobody will hire directly from campus. The students need to take initiative to get placed. And the opportunity is immense here in Utah. As it is growing a lot and job openings seems to increase everyday.

It's a highly ranked university in the entire US, and the school of computing has some renowned professors as well as facilities to nurture the students according to the current industry needs. Also, the location is really picturesque with all the mountains & natural resources.

about 50% of the students got placed in industry, some of them are post doctoral fellows at good universities

Liked the professors working in my area of interest (algebraic geometry at the time) and talked to the PhD students who were studying there at the time, and got a good vibe from that.
