Hostel:

I stayed at Helen Hadley Hall for the first 2-3 years which is part of the Yale international housing. Later, I rented an apartment outside the university with a friend of mine. Yale housing costed roughly 800 dollars each month. The apartment costed about the same per person. The choice between an apartment vs a university hostel room depends on how you want to set up your place and how big you want it to be. Freedom-wise nothing changes. You are free to move in and out all 24 hours. Another factor to consider could be interactions with other cool people. In a university housing, you run into people all the time, hang out in common kitchens or lounge rooms etc and learn about all the great work other people are doing. The apartment will be your private setting. Hence, I decided to spend the first few years in the university housing before I moved into my own apartment.

The research program at Yale best suited my work interests, had a world class research environment, highly talented and inspiring individuals, and comprehensive funding and support facilities. The health insurance etc. was also comprehensive and fully paid for by the university. My department at Yale ranks among the best in the nation and produces very dense, highly quality research in a tightly knit, multi-disciplinary collaborative environment combining aspects of mechanical/civil/chemical engineering coupled with electrical engineering and analytical chemistry which I appreciated quite a lot. Yale also provides immense international exposure and numerous opportunities to develop additional dimensions in one's personality. In my case, I also trained in Shotokan Karate at Yale and received my Black Belt from Japan Karate Association before I finished my time at the university.
