First of all, whether the poster is studying for a bachelor’s degree, a master’s degree, or a PHD degree. This one is very different. In the United States, undergraduate studies focus more on communication and ability. To put it bluntly, it means having fun and making friends. The Master & PHD are mainly focused on academic subjects in order to cope with finding a job or doing academic work in the future. The two are not the same.

So if you are studying in the United States as an undergraduate, you will mainly consider traditional prestigious schools and the strength of the alumni association. Of course, because you have to live for four to five years, you must consider whether your personality is suitable for a big city or a small town. Do you want to go to a place with more Chinese people or less Chinese people?

From what the poster meant, "Chinese people are so nice", "Afraid of heat", "Medium-level city" (I don't quite understand this sentence)

If you like big cities, you can consider California, such as LA , California has an extremely large number of Asians, and the climate is very sunny all the time. There are basically a lot of Chinese in schools in LA, and it feels like you have entered the international department of some domestic schools. Moreover, California has Chinatown, and the Chinese have a certain right to speak. However, traffic in LA is very inconvenient, so it is best to buy a car when you arrive. They represent schools USC and UCLA. Of course, the safety near USC school is relatively low, and UCLA is safer. Of course, apart from the LA area, UC Berkeley in California is even more awesome and the school is very good.

If you consider the east, although New York is relatively dirty and has a very northern climate, there are also many Chinese people, and many people like the feeling of New York as a big city. If you prefer a city with famous schools, you can consider Boston. There are many famous schools nearby, such as MIT and Harvard. Moreover, the Boston subway is very developed and the traffic situation is much better than that of LA.

Chicago, a city in the middle, is also very good, but I haven’t been there so I don’t know much about it. Northwestern University and the University of Chicago are both there. In the Pennsylvania area, Upenn (a prestigious school with a lot of Chinese people) is in Philadelphia, and Penn State (party university undergraduates are very cool) is in Park.

If you like a typical small town in the United States, you have more choices. Schools with a large number of Chinese people such as Purdue (West Lafayette campus), UIUC (located in cornfields, large rural areas) ), Syracuse (Syracuse, New York, as the name suggests, it snows heavily in winter) has more choices.

Everything depends on the type of hotel the poster likes. It has to be a big city, but the name of the school is more important or whether the place is comfortable to stay. Of course, the most important question is whether the poster’s background can be applied to the school he wants to go to.
