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:

Ashhad has his hands full. :p

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.

its easy dude, just get 2 A*s and an A in A levels, this may be hard but is a LOT easier than getting into US. what can I say about the cost, its there nothing you can do about it.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
