I joined the master’s program on spring 2019, I participated in various coffee hours which is held specially for the international students from which I got to know more about the events going around in Youngstown State University. I was able to get to know about the courses by talking to my seniors who also attended the coffee hour and I helped me to understand about the transport, sports clubs, IPO events, cultural events and the penguin nights. I also got an opportunity to host on the Lunar event!! If you are able to contact me on my mail I would love to share my experience with you and I would try to guide you with you questions to best possible way!
