I need help

<p>I am a Canadian resident and I wish to go to the US for my Undergrad degree in Mechanical Engineering.I am Into Ga Tech , UMich , Pirdue and UIUC . My parents want me to got to either UToronto or Waterloo coz it is cheaper for me (tuition is around 6K for me ) . I want to go to Ga tech . do you think it is worth it ? . Do you think I can transfer to a good US university after 2-3 year ? . Do you think I will get a better job (or in to a better Grad school) if I go to the US ? . What Will I be missing out on ? . What will I be gaining If I stay in Canada. </p>

<p>I am really confused . Please help me out .</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Isn’t Waterloo very well respected in Canada? Going to school in the US does not mean you can stay after you graduate. While some engineers do get H1B visas that allow them to stay 6 year, most who want them don’t. Not something you can count on as they have been lowering the number of visas and probably will continue to.</p>

<p>I’d go to the school that will best position you in Canada.</p>

<p>thanks for the help.</p>

<p>Finances are not at all a problem for me. The thing is that my parents feel going to the US and spending so much money is a waste . All is ask is for the following questions :-</p>

<p>1)I want to settle down in the US after my studies . Will studying in the US give me more oppurtunities ? . Where does Canada stand in terms of education ?</p>

<p>I am currently living in some other country (Though I have a canadian resident visa)</p>
