Hey all! I'm curious to know which college in the US tends to have the highest number of Indian students. It might be interesting to see how the cultural diversity varies among colleges, and potentially reveal some about their international connections and opportunities. Thanks!
The University of Southern California (USC) typically tops the list of American universities with the highest number of Indian students. The welcoming environment, extensive range of degree programs, and strong technology/engineering focus at USC are attractive to many students from India. USC, like many colleges and universities, values a diverse student body as this enriches the learning experience for all students.
But it's not just about numbers. A supportive community, many academic resources, and opportunities that align with your career and personal goals are very important. For instance, universities like the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Purdue University, New York University, and Northeastern University also have a significant number of Indian students and provide substantial resources for international students.
Besides, consider checking out various multicultural clubs and Indian student organizations at universities you're interested in to get a better sense of the community and whether or not it would be a good fit for you. Many universities have clubs that celebrate Diwali, Holi, and other cultural events that could help you feel at home on campus.
