I know, I’m not planning for this fall, rather next fall or the one after that since I still have one year of my bachelors in Sweden, and I’m pretty hopeful that it will have changed by then. It’s pretty much the same here though, for a university that is known to have a very active student life. But it’s rather the general feeling of meeting other american students and gain contacts that way, feels like it’s easier when you’re younger and the further you get into your studies/older you become the less likely it is that you find other people that are actually looking to find new “friends for life” as cliche that may sound, as they already have formed groups etc. It’s kind of crucial for me as I dont know anyone there. The student life is just an extra plus.
Hmm, as for how I’ve understood it these past 4 years that I’ve researched into universities in USA, don’t you get guaranteed 1 year of working visa at any company related to the specific program after finishing a bachelor in the US and 2 years of working visa after a masters? After that I know the’ll send you straight home if you haven’t settled with a company that are willing to kind of “buy you out”. I mean that’s kind of enough for me to be honest, I just really want to live in the USA for 2-4 years and feel like it’s easier to do now when I’m young.
Thanks for your answer.
