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.

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.
