Does stipend( cost of living with house rent) included? If it's not included, I will go to USA.

Our people in UK will not tell everything they are going through. You can imagine paying Electricity bills of 300pounds alone.

I am about to begin application for Master in USA, for Fall September, is it still feasible?

Also any recommended schools that are friendly for giving admissions?

Kenny4smart:
Guys, just a quick one about the OPT thing please.
I understand that it is a one year work permit during or post study for international students in non STEM degrees.
If I activate the OPT while doing a 2 years Msc program, the permit should be exhausted one year into that program. Now, what happens in the second year please?
Further, If an OPT has been exhausted during study. Am I eligible for a new OPT after graduation?

Your clarity on the practicality of this will be very much appreciated 🙏

Warm Regards.

Rdfactor:


Thanks for the tip. So it means you basically need to apply on your school website for OPT first, and that'd prompt them to send an updated i20 for work authorization to the USCIS. Thanks. Some people talked about a way to have this $410 waived I don't know 😆

Davegabriel:
Hello everyone, please can someone work in the US and cover a COA of about $35k in his school?

BigIyanga:

Davegabriel:

Kenny4smart:


No student pays £300 for electricity bill anywhere in the UK. Authenticate your finding please.

Akin4Christ:
Help interpret this abeg, seems I don't understand English again.
The first was a rejection last year from the graduate coordinator, the second is the recent mail from him for this year application.

chibertha:
Since you are none STEM you should have one of the plans below;

Look for OPT accompanies that will file H1B for you,
or
Get any company that accepts you and stay there and look for another that will give you H1B

or

Go for PhD straight or another maters that is STEM eg health informatics

or go for PhD or another study after your 1 year OPT

Then while in PhD consider NIW

NOTE
you can not do OPT again if you go back for the same level of study after the first one so think am well well

las las you will be fine

chibertha:

see me rolling on the ground with laughter

Najdorf:

Haha and even with New York cost of living will eat into your savings

chibertha:
E go haaaaaard oooh
It means you will do both legal 20hrs work and under-the-table work.

So how will you study and pass?

For your information, C is considered a fail in graduate school over here.

Gokoyer0:
@Biglyanga understood the points I am trying to make. I don't have strength to drag UK electricity bills with you.

Kenny4smart:


Thank you woman of valor for your response . I am currently enrolled for an undergraduate degree in the UK 🇬🇧 which I will be concluding very soon and will like to further in the US. This explains why I know very little or nothing about the US study thread.

So if you can be kind enough to guide me further, what’s NIW you talked about please?
Ans NIW is national interest waiver see link
https://www.uscis.gov/forms/explore-my-options/eb-2-employment-based-immigration-advanced-degree-or-exceptional-ability

Again, if an OPT is used while studying, can it still be used again after graduation?
Ans- using OPT while studying can only be done after you have done one academic year and declared financial difficulty (you do not want to go there I promise you)
It is more profitable after studies see link.

https://www.uscis.gov/working-in-the-united-states/students-and-exchange-visitors/optional-practical-training-opt-for-f-1-students
Again how easy is it to secure the H1B?

And again. do you advise I use my UK degree to pursue a PhD directly, if yes,
Ans yes

how possible is this
Ans; very possible if you have high grades, research experience, and publications with the possibility of getting a full ride if you are in STEM

and are there US schools that you are aware of that accepts a UK bachelors for direct PhD?

Ans: plenty use the link below to find one

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_American_universities_and_colleges


With these few points of mine, I hope I have been able to convince you that you have all it takes to relocate to the USA only if you can study the links I added.
Thank you

Your guidance will be highly appreciated.
Warm Regards.

BigIyanga:

Cos the practical question is, how does she/he save $35k/yr from work to pay tuition abi?
If every student saved $35k/yr … why are u still hustling to get into a PhD program? Lol

BigIyanga:

He/she could try YMCA/Shelter ??
