In the USA after you've completed your studies and earned a Degree only then its possible to apply for a job. The time duration to find that job is 60 days, if not, then you gotta get your ass back where it came from. And if you do get a job, then you can work firstly for around 2.5 year's, its not that bad. (and this is for people who are going on student Visa's).

FEE STRUCTURE:

You will need a minimum of US$20,000 to $30,000 per year to cover the costs of tuition, room and board, books, and personal expenses. Some universities cost well over US$45,000 - US$55,000 per year. Very few awards are more than $5,000. The cost of studying in the United States varies widely among universities, and the cost of living varies from location to location.
The chart below shows the range of costs that students can expect to find at various universities:
Room and Board ($4,000 - $12,000)
Books and Supplies ($500 - $1,000)
Health Insurance ($400 - $600)
Personal Expenses ($6000-$10,000)


Is this after the inclusion of financial aid?

^^Yea that's all for international students. That's why its always better to apply and study somewhere, where people at least have some relatives living there.

Just thought I'd add to this, the fee structure will have a massive rise in the upcoming 2 years. Just so you guys know.

best option is Germany..I am applying for Germany for masters..and the advantages out number the cons by alot..

1)World Recognized universities...500 euro education (average), some are free..total expenses are approx 5.5 lac/annual(without working or paid internships)
2)English taught courses (no german required for visa or uni)..the whole degree is taught in english not german... though its a good idea to do a course here in Pakistan for survival ..on the other hand the uni themselves also teach you basic german...and for anyone who knows english and urdu, learning german isnt that hard..its pretty fun actually
3) Job opportunities
4) 1 year extra visa after masters/bachelors for jobs
5) Some of the best cities in the world to live in (Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Leipzig, Frankfort, Stuttgart, Cologne, Bonn, Dresden, etc..)


I can write a guideline if anyone is interested!:ninja:

This should be a long-term continuing thread with multiple "experts" helping out. If you have anything positive, constructive, tips or helpful insight please do share here.

Plenty of friends went to usa, are in usa and they love their 'merican experience.

Just stay away from the hardcore redneck states. i.e. The deep south.

You can say world recognized but theres also a difference in them, if you graduate from say Imperial College London, nd one guy does from some top notch uni in germany, theres a hell lot of a difference, uk is expensive nd they dont give you that visa but their degree has unparallel value.

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.
