In terms of lucrative jobs, STEM courses (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) are the very lucrative jobs here in the US. I can't say this enough. These are courses that qualify you for H1B work visa sponsorship should you need one after graduation. Most arts courses do not qualify for H1B sponsorship. The full list of STEM courses can be found here:

https://www.ice.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Document/2016/stem-list.pdf

Check out the list to see which ones closely relate to mass communication for your master's degree. Since you want to study a lucrative course for your masters, the closest possible one I could find on that list are economics/econometrics, management science, business statistics, etc. Why not go for any of those? Remember, it is not just coming to America to study anyhow course, you need to study a course that creates for you a solid career in the long run.

Finally, NEVER use an agent for anything. This has been reiterated infinitesimally on this forum that it is beginning to sound like a cliche. You do NOT need them for anything. Everything you can do for yourself and everything you need you can get from just being a member of this forum. Follow this thread daily, read and act and in as little as 3 months you would know just as much as your average agent, if not more.
Do you mean to say that those going for MBA stand a Zero chance of making good money? Please help us with useful informational details about the opportunities obtainable for MBA students.

See eh, one thing I do know about visiting the US for childbirth is that you should be able to afford all medical expenses related to the delivery and not depend on medicaid here in the US for part or most of your expenses, or else you may be found ineligible for future B1/B2 visa renewal should you want to re-enter again. That being said, you should be looking at areas here where childbirth is quite affordable for international pregnant women, and co-incidentally El Paso in Texas happens to be number 1 or 2 lately for many foreign Nigerian pregnant women. Follow the link justwise for more information. Good luck.

Hence the error has been made, how best can it be corrected to be able to get visa again?

Both have their uniqueness!!! It depends on the angle you look at it from grin
Here, I am RA and TA together, am actually both. And no be beans at all at all because na EE department.
However, I enjoyed both because am boosting my CV for the future...
The truth I observed is that TA is better than RA. TA helps you indirectly to grow after teaching. RA can slightly be negative if the research line differs from yours totally.

cuspy:
Hello guys, which is better and why; a TA or a RA?

back to my question, as a graduate of accounting with 5 years experiences in non accounting field, is it advisable to go for Master studies in accounting say Forensic accounting or business analytics?
I don't know why I love that profession with all the passion and effort i put in to get accounting job, it prove abortive ( note I got to Partner interview stages 3 times: first one was one of the big four, the other firm is among the big five).
I know that it's possible through the knowledge and experience of the guru, this brings me to my second question what is the probability of getting a coy that ll sponsor your H1b after internship or OPT?
Thanks all

The bold crack me up so much, you are a funny man. Now to your questions, to be honest with you I have little to no idea about any course that is not Engineering. Commenting might be a disservice to you so I will let other people give you better advice.

What if your school was located in one of those 'fancy' areas? Would you rather live an hour away from school? The point is that you can study anywhere you can afford the cost of living, and very easily move to anywhere you want once you graduate. Forget about 'big cities'...for now


Chicago and new york have excellent transport facilities wether by train or by bus. Some schools even offer permanent or temporary free transportation card to students around that particular that city.i am talking of saving 1200$ out of someones annual budget. Buying a car and maintaining the bills can be a heavy burden for students on low budget.

MBA in Ohio Admission for spring 2018 is about closing in most school. You need to do an extensive research on the schools in Ohio and what the requirements are. Better to plan for fall '18.

Great !!!
Am sure you got your i20 already, Go to the gtbank near you and pay for 64,000 for F1 appointment fee. Go with your passport. Book your appointment because slots get filed up fast and then make arrangements to pay your sevis fee ($200)
Please do I need SEVIS receipt to book my appointment? I'm yet to make SEVIS payment and I want to book my appointment to get a close date.

Go ahead and pay your visa fee. Go to a gtbank with your passport and pay 64k. Ask the school to send you your sevis number and school code that's all you need. Time is filling up fast

WES basic course by course s good but I think WES saves your transcript for couple of years so depending on what you want you can go for basic. Make sure it's course by course evaluation.

It depends on the GPA. US schools do not look at first class, second class or third class. They look directly at the GPA. What was your final GPA?
