<p>In europe a bachelor is 3 years. In USA a bachelor is 4 years.</p>
<p>Can someone with a european bachelor apply for a Masters program in USA?</p>
<p>Yes. Just make sure your grades are really solid, and try to attend a school that's recognised in the US so that there isn't any doubt about the (perceived) quality.</p>
<p>OK. Here no one know if one need to study an extra year to reach 4 or if 3 years are enough. So that was really helpful.</p>
<p>Of course solid grades is always a plus. What do you Americans consider solid? I guess a 3,5 and up on your scale?</p>
<p>This is our grading scale in europe: ECTS</a> grading scale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia </p>
<p>I think a B in everything is solid. What do you people think?
A B means you are top 35% and A mean top 10%.</p>
<p>Just so you know, an European C is equal to an USA B, while our B is roughly their A-/B+.</p>
<p>And yes a European 3 year education is equal to their 4 years since we take less side classes.</p>
