Robinhood vs Vanguard for investing in index funds

Hi,
I am a new grad, & exploring a bit on investing in index funds.
I want to get started but Vanguard doesn’t let F1 Visa holders(Non resident aliens) open an account.
But I see that I can invest in Vanguard indexes using Robinhod.
Is there any difference in their offerings, or am I
missing something. Cant get around the fact that Vanguard thinks I am not eligible, while Robinhood allows me to do the same.
Looking to get started with the three fund approach. Any thoughts/suggestions appreciated.

Vanguard. Period. TD was shamed into eliminating fees for trades by chuck. Can’t trust these bankers. Any of them.
Either way sounds like you’re stuck with Robinhood though
When will you be needing the investment?
How much will you be able to put in a month?
I may have some index funds (S&P500, EURO STOXX, HANG SENG) available that you can participate in base on your answer to those questions.
