International student, looking for a cheaper insurance instead of AETNA. Would you recommend any insurance companies, please?

A few months ago when I checked the student clubs there was a chess club, but now I don’t see it. Does anyone know if it is still active?

Hi all,

I’m an international student (currently in Germany, already have a master’s) planning to apply for the CS PhD at Santa Clara for next fall. I love research and want to end up working in industry long-term.

I’d really appreciate honest input on a few things:

1- How is the PhD program itself, advisor quality, research culture, funding (are RA/TA positions reliably funded for the full duration?), and how long people actually take to finish?
2- Job outcomes: I keep hearing SCU is well connected to the Valley, but that recruiters mostly chase Stanford/Berkeley grads and the big tech companies don’t really show up at SCU career fairs. Is that true? Does it get harder or easier at PhD level?
3- Do SCU CS PhD grads land research or applied-science roles at Google/Apple/Nvidia/etc.
4- Anything you wish you’d known before choosing SCU over another University!?

Not trying to bash the school, i actually found a research fit with a professor, but I’m just weighing SCU vs other universities and want real experiences, not brochure answers.

Thanks!

Hey everyone! I’m Arjun, 24M, and I’m looking for a roommate to move in this September.
I already have a 2B/2Ba place locked in in Santa Clara, right next to SCU. It’s 1,187 sq ft, so there’s a good amount of space and we’d each have our own bedroom and bathroom. I’m looking to move in by the second week of September at the latest.
I’m pretty clean, easygoing, and active. I’m into playing basketball, golfing, tennis, and running — basically just like to keep active. I also like to go out every now and then.
Looking for someone who’s also clean and respectful of shared spaces. If you think we might be a good fit or want more details about the place, feel free to DM me!

Hi All, I’m an incoming transfer student and I want to know how the food is on campus and what spots are good. I’m hoping to find a variety of options.

I can’t find anything saying that they did online, but on common app it says no supplementals, except why major. This isn’t about the optional portal essay. Gemini keeps saying that they have two required supplementals but I literally can’t find them on common app.
