My Experience as an International Masters (Graduate Degree) student; academically and non-academically

Central Michigan University is located in Mt. Pleasant, MI, which is approximately 160 miles (300 kms) from Detroit, the main city of Michigan. Mt. Pleasant is a small university town with a university campus of around 650 acres. Central Michigan University, also known as CMU, offers variety of undergrad, graduate and doctoral programs. My program was Master Of science in information Systems with specialization in SAP ERP. and was under the 'business school' which offers business programs at the undergraduate and graduate level and an MBA program with specializations. My program was a 30 credit hour program with additional foundation courses for those who didn't have sufficient business background. The program was and is open to students who have undergraduate degree in IT/Computer related degrees and also to those without IT/Computer related major. The class size was approximately 1:20 student average for each course.
I was offered a 'Graduate Research Assistanceship' for 5 hours a week where I had to work under my professor helping in her research. This GA started in my second semester and continued till the end of my program. This was an excellent opportunity to earn experience and helped me to offset my tuition fees to a considerable extent. To be honest, I was bit lazy in finding a suitable 'Graduate Assiatanceship'; if I would have planned properly, i could have got GA of 10 hours or even more from my department or even from other departments where my tuition fee would have reduced further as the university pays for either one/two/three courses too depending on the hours i get the GA.
My sincere suggestion to those planning to study at the Masters level specifically; try getting very good GRE/GMAT and English test scores, apply early, talk with the professors and try to get atleast 5 hr GA on I-20 (i.e even before landing in the US).

Apart from the Business school, CMU offers programs in other areas like Engineering, Education, Liberal Arts, Administration, Health Sciences, now Medicine and more.

Yes, the university has 2 big 'career fairs' ' one in fall semester and other in spring semester where approximately 100 companies come on campus. This is the best time to exhibit your skills, make contacts and even secure internship and job opportunities. 

To prepare, the university has a career center where you can know more about various opportunities, avenues or even companies which mostly visit the campus every year. One can avail of services like counselling which is both , free and paid which helps you to get exposed to US style techniques, interviews, resume preparation and more.

When i was a student in 2006-2008, the university was not famous amongst many international students like other universities. Current situation might be different

Make study work more of student's own responsibility. Make business courses more challenging. I didnt like I had to reproduce what I just studied,

The University wasnt in the list:

The experience was unique. There were a lot of International students and I learnt a lot during the three semesters doing my M.B.A. due to the excellent profesors and the classes offered.
