My experience with Ashoka

I had an amazing experience in this programme, both in terms of academic and social life. The content was really valuable and added a lot to my academe of journey. As a foreign student from a different university, I was happy to discover alternative methods of teaching and to exchange knowledge with other students enrolled. The student life was also a major positive point of this programme, as I got to take part of various clubs and associations. I will never forget this incredible experience through which I truly learnt a lot.

My review

Even though it was a two week programme I feel like it did a lot for me as a student. I also feel like I learnt a lot as a student. The opportunities were within my capabilities but also challenged me. I think this is a good way to broaden one’s horizons and think about how the world works. The experiences I had were great. 我覺得這是很好. I would recommend this to my peers. I learnt a lot academically and vocationally. I got to try new food and learn about history of the place I was in. Overall, it was an amazing course.

My Experience

It was an incredibly inclusive and informative programme. I had a lot of fun and got a chance to make a lot of friends. The studies are serious but not too rigorous, so you are left with a free time to be able to do other activities. It is helpful to build a resume as well. The kinds of experiences I had were good. Even the professors and teaching staff were helpful with any query. I also got to eat new food and learn interesting things about the culture. I would recommend this programme to my peers.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would try to learn more about the language

Wanted to Stay More

All I can say after this program is that I wanted to stay here more than I had. It never felt enough because there was just so much to do here. I was always doing something that made me really happy and helped me relax. It was a little difficult adjusting to a new place but you get the hang of it early. I loved the program's curriculum and it definitely aligned with what I want to do in the future. Speaking of the future I think this program makes you future ready. The skills I learnt here are better than what was taught to me over years earlier. Overall it was a great time.

What was your funniest moment?
It was when there was a monkey on campus and it ran with my friend's water bottle in hand.

Beyond Academics

Even after three years at Ashoka, it still doesn’t feel monotonous. Each day feels unique, with the university constantly organizing festivals and activities that keep students engaged. Weekends are especially exciting—you can either dive into academic immersions or enjoy the vibrant fest culture.

Sports opportunities are incredibly diverse; almost every sport is available, and students can join teams and compete in numerous tournaments with nearby universities as well as institutions across India. Alongside this, there’s a wide range of clubs and societies to join, and even the freedom to start your own if you have an idea.

Overall, Ashoka offers a well-rounded experience for anyone looking to grow academically while also making the most of campus life.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Do not overthink or contemplate much before you apply, there is so much more to this program than I could explain in my review. Just go for it and see yourself having the best experience one could ever have.
Pros
  • You plan your own schedule
  • Laundry, Housekeeping and Maintenance services are just a phone call away

What other participants should know
  • in a remote area
  • have to go delhi for major chores (but free shuttle services available)
  • too safe and pampering campus setting that you will have adaptation issues leaving it

The Place That Stays With You

I've had so much fun in these 2 weeks that words cannot explain. It was great to share space with other like minded people whom you can trust and build careers with. The campus feels like a space space where one can be anything. This program has helped me regain focus and pivoted my career into a direction that I firmly believe will help me reach my goals. I made lifelong friends and some really important connections. I loved the way the faculty taught and how immersive the program was. This program is sure to become a big part of your life.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
The most surprising thing for me was the friendly way students and professors interacted. I had thought that you could only approach professors during class time and not after that, but I saw everyone interacting on the same level.
Pros
  • Great Learning Experience
  • Friendly Professors
  • Like Minded Peers
What other participants should know
  • Small Campus
  • Bad Weather
  • Too Less Time

There are so many clubs and societies to take part in or create one of your own if you intend to. Ashoka gives a full round experience to someone who wants to learn and also have fun.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
I fell sick once and was worried about missing classes and how would i catch up. But the worry was truely short lived as the faculty her is so accommodating and helpful. I also had help from different support bodies and helpdesk to get me back on the track.
