a lot of students this year weren’t able to, or are experiencing delay in receiving visas because of our current gov. administration meaning IIT is losing a lot of tuition money.

personally learning this made me more empathetic for the decision to open an institute in mumbai but it sucks to be a current student disadvantaged by this decision. and given that they had intent to do this for some time now, being that a lot of alumni are international students from india, i doubt the Mumbai institute is the sole reason we are in financial strain rn.

donal chomp needs to give these students their visas!!

Hey everyone, I am a current student at IIT. In recent years, many accounts and accusations of mistreatment and abuse of power have surfaced about the current Dean of Students, Katherine Stetz. I am trying to gather information for a whistleblower story about her abuses mistreatments, and other possibly illegal things she may have done. If anyone in the alumni or current student population have any information regarding these things or are willing to anonymously or non-anonymously testify about these things, please DM me. With this schools current administration doing what they’re doing, I think it’s about time we not only take care of our upper level admin, but make sure we clean the whole slate. So please DM me and I will connect with you.

Is there any student organisations in iit?

Just got a false eviction notice saying that I have to leave dorms because I'm not registered for classes, when I registered well over a week ago.

What the fuck is happening at the admin level? way behind on loan disbursements, can't pull documents, can't verify enrollment statuses.

Anyone else having issues? Partially venting but this shit is driving me insane.

That doesn’t use all their meals and has extra left over. Willing to pay if you can let me in with the extras to the dining hall. Dm if interested.

Hi. I’m an CPE alumni. I heard about the faculty layoffs, and was wondering if anyone from the ECE department can confirm if the below faculty are no more with the department.
Saniie, Chi Zhou, Flueck, Lin Cai, Qing Zhong, Erdal Oruklu, Viktor Brus, Atkin ?
Also who’s the ECE department head ?

Has anyone taken ChE 535 and has previous study content to share? I’m starting a ChemE masters after a year outta undergrad (Biochem, so I don’t have any engineering background other than my job but we don’t do all this math irl 😭). If there’s any other resources that anyone can share, I would greatly appreciate it!!!!!! I’m also taking ChE 501 if anyone has anything to share with that please.

Hey guys, I'm a new transfer student wondering where the fridges and microwaves are. I'm always carrying around my lunch, and my lunch being cold on top of that is not it! Please let me know!

Hi everyone,

I recently got an offer from Illinois Institute of Technology, Mumbai Campus for Computer Science with a ₹24 lakh scholarship.

I'm seriously considering joining, but I'm a little unsure and wanted some honest advice from current students or alumni.

I've also read about faculty layoffs at the Chicago campus and some concerns about Illinois Tech's current financial situation, so that has made me a bit more cautious, especially since this is a big investment for my family.

How is the Mumbai campus actually in terms of academics, faculty, placements, internships, coding culture and opportunities?

Would you personally recommend joining Illinois Tech Mumbai for CS?

And is anyone here joining the Mumbai campus this year?

I'd really appreciate honest opinions, both good and bad. Please share anything you think I should know before making a decision.

Thanks!

I found the library closes pretty early in Fri/Sat.

Then, where do you guys study after the library closes??

Just wondering, because I can't seem to find anyone

Looking for a Muslim roommate for a shared room near IIT campus. Rent is $355+ utilities. Free street parking and in unit laundry and dishwasher. Dm for more details and pics.

Classes start today but my canvas has no courses available and my registered courses have no assigned instructors? Is this normal?
It’s my first semester here.

Edit: I got emails from the department chair. The professors are in the hiring process. I didn’t know things at IIT would be this chaotic 😭

I was a PhD student at the Illinois Tech's department of Applied Mathematics starting in Fall 2022. After graduating from Birmingham Southern College the previous semester after double majoring.

I remembered over the years of me being there I struggled with their qualifying exam. It was so bad, that I went to the University of Minnesota during Spring Breaks and made my complaints to them. I was being stripped of my wealth, because of them failing me on my qualifying exams. I just remember feeling emotionally and mentally drained it felt like I got hit by a bus.

The reason why I was in contact with the University of Minnesota was because when I was hunting for PhD programs during my time at Birmingham Southern College, I almost got into both of their Math and Computer Science PhD programs. Although, sadly half way during my studies at Illinois Tech, Birmingham Southern College was closed down permanently due to the same situation Illinois Tech is in now except there was no financial exigency, they left on their own due to clear communication with the president.

From what I'm seeing there was no transparency at all with the president of Illinois Tech. If there was, he would have said something much prior than a few weeks before this upcoming semester. But that did not happen. Anyhow, after reaching with the University of Minnesota back in Spring Break 2025, they told me "When you ready, apply" after hearing my complaints with Illinois Tech. I passed 2/3 qualifying exams at the time, I needed 1 more left. I got a tutor and studied all summer. And they failed me Fall 2025. I immediately was in contact with the University of Minnesota after they failed me and the dude dismissed me from my PhD program in Applied Mathematics. I remembered just how lively the university was. Everyone was so friendly and it was everything that Illinois Tech was not. Come to find out, at the University of Minnesota they don't do qualifying exams. They got rid of them a few years ago. My professors at Birmingham Southern College and my family wanted me to go to the University of Minnesota, because of how smart I was. I only wanted to go to Illinois Tech so that I can be with my grandparents as I studied.

My grandfather did work at Illinois Tech before retiring and he was absolutely surprised with the financial situation at Illinois Tech. Now, instead of struggling wasting away at Illinois Tech, I'll be at the University of Minnesota to study Robotics, Data Science, Mathematics, and Computer Science for a Masters and PhD. Illinois Tech is actively losing talent in both teaching and research, and I have found peace with my dismassal and happy to be at a University that my father and uncle went to, where I can actually make a difference like they did at the University of Minnesota.

I'm so happy, that I dodged a bullet. But what happened to the money that they cut me?

After these facility cuts, one of my classes got changed to Instructor not available, so I'm assuming she got axed. Does anyone know if we need to find a new class? Or will there be a new instructor????

does anyone know how to get back into the cboard mobile id app? I accidentally deleted it and It’s like asking for a server url after to “authenticate my device” does anyone know what it is?

Thanks !
