Pros

There are a great array of people from all of the world, both student and faculty. I find great connections and opportunities available, and it is readily out there if you look even a little bit.

Cons

During your time as a student it may seem like all your hard work is without a goal. Regardless most the work ends up being a build of character and helps you in the end.
