Hey everyone,

I’m an undergrad from India graduating in 2027 and planning to apply for MSCS in the US for Fall ’27.

Not posting for profile review or advice right now, just looking to connect with others in the same application cycle. Would be nice to build a small circle of people going through the same process (projects, internships, research, exams, applications).

If you’re targeting Fall ’27 too, would love to connect.

Hey everyone,

I’m planning for an MS in the US for Fall ’27 and wanted to connect with others from India aiming for the same cycle.

Not looking for advice right now, just hoping to find people on a similar path to connect, share progress, and stay in touch through the application journey.

If you’re targeting Fall ’27 too, drop your field and where you’re at in the process.
