It tells me that these universities have an environment that supports students setting up and running companies while still enrolled. Students being successful enough to drop out before graduating is a badge of honor for these universities. Flexibility with schedules, reduced work load, taking semesters off – none of these are allowed by Indian colleges (believe me, I went through it myself). You can't even pick your own subjects or class schedule. Tell me, what was the last success story to come out of the IIT entrepreneurs' club?
