Course Curriculum
I really like the course curriculum. We are required to take subjects that are outside our major. For example, even though I am in the business school, I still have to take History and English classes. I like how the university makes me well-rounded. I have met people from so many different backgrounds because we all end up in the same classes even if we have different majors.
Fees
The fee is $56,000 a year for international students. Scholarships are available for students based on GPA and are given automatically to students so students do not have to go through the hassle of applying. I was awarded the Presidential Transfer Award and International Student Grant for a total of $18000
