It is a really good university and probably the safest place to study abroad, added to this the cost of living is cheap.
I wrote GRE for which I went to GRE classes in Chennai; I prepared for a year. I did not go through any counseling. I needed a VISA. It was really easy for me to get a VISA, I had all the documents and the Interview was very simple and easy. I got tickets through my friend and it was not that tough if you do it early. I flew Air India, it was good. They offered a student option. I landed in Houston. It was 90 miles from the university. I carried with me 23+ 23 + 8 Kg. Excess baggage was allowed but was charged. I did not face any immigration issue at the port of entry; as long as u have all the documents in hand you are fine. The university offered a very good Meet and Greet service.
For IE grads assistantships are pretty hard to find.
I am happy with the way the program is structured. The professors are really good. Lecture halls are modern with state of art facilities. Library service is good. For sports they have a recreation center which is massive and good.
I am staying off campus. Off campus is good and comparatively cheap. I would rate moderate to get hold of part time jobs. Social scene is very good , lot of Indians around and its fun all the time. Night life is very safe, no worries. Climate is pretty much Indian. There is an International student society. They handle all the Indian special occasions and also other important occasion.
They do have a very good placement cell. It is getting tougher these days and there is a campus placement process in place. A lot of organizations attend, they offer the biggest career fair in the country. They do have an alumni and they function pretty well. Lot of students who work for companies do come back and recruit students.
