<p>First of all thank you very much for taking the time to read my thread.
I've just graduated as an Electrical Engineer in Argentina and I'd like to do a masters and work in the US but I have some questions that you might help me answer.</p>
<p>1: Where could I find the equivalence between my degree here and the US one? What would be the papers or things I might need for this? I'm asking this because in my university it is a six year program and in the us it is a four year program. According to this, I found that that is Europe my extra two years would be the first year of a master.</p>
<p>2: What would it be the situation if I do first a master in Europe? (They are cheaper, and I have more chances to get it and the recoginze me the first year so It would only be one year). </p>
<p>3: Would it be a good idea to get some work experience and do a master in a few years? Is it hard to get a job with my BS degree? (I guess not). Of course I might get a better job with a Mmaster, am I right? Or work experience is what companies expect?</p>
<p>4: Assuming that my best option is to get a job and apply for a master in a few years. What would be my real chances to be accepted being graduated for several years? </p>
<p>5: Assuming again that my best option is to get a job. If everything works out, I should try to get a residency. My sister is an American Citizen, she was born there. Would that help me? I read that she can sponsor me. IF that works out, and after four or five years working and living there, wouldn't it be easier to get a loan to pay for the Master?</p>
<p>6: Is it true that if I get a job at some company and decide to do a Master, that company would help me pay for my master? </p>
<p>7: If my best option is to get a job first or I don't get accepted for a program and I still want to move and don't want to wait one more year here , what would be the correct way to do it? I mean, I only have a tourist visa and I know that I cannot work without a working visa. Would the residency and the help from my sister sponsoring me be the best option?</p>
<p>Any kind of help will be appreciated. Thank you very much for taking the time to read my thread!</p>
