<p>what happens after an ivy league education? for internationals that is…</p>
<p>you get a job or do an internship or go off to grad school… my family friend (intl student) went to NYU and is doing an internship with Goldman sach in HK</p>
<p>Exactly what happens to a domestic student, except that you might have to struggle a bit more to get a job (work visas and all that).</p>
<p>after graduation we’re packed off in a ship or end up working as convenience store clerks in springfield. or we die, but then few people have it that good.</p>
<p>taemi, i didn’t know you could be funny :D.</p>
<p>“i can be, if i put my mind to it!” :)</p>
<p>in the real world i am pretty funny. here i just sound obscene!</p>
<p>yeah, i’m more funny online than in the real world, in the real world, i’m just the person who goes and sits in the corner while everyone’s laughing and having a good time because i don’t know how to join group conversations.</p>
<p>you know, we’re hijacking all the threads on the international forum. AND we talk on Facebook, orkut and GMail Chat.</p>
<p>is that a good thing or a bad thing? (or just plain creepy? or perfectly normal?)</p>
<p>it’s just a… thing. observation.</p>
<p>I am going to be a teacher with Teach for America.</p>
<p>wow, you people actually know Orkut, I thought it was only a Brazilian phenomenon!! I’ll probably come back to Brazil, find the cure for AIDS and win some Noble Prize, hopefully by then the president won’t be a complete idiot who has less education than my 10 year-old sister.</p>
<p>taemi and TheOneCurlyFry, you guys are sooo cute! are you both indian?</p>
<p>orkut is full of Indians and Pakistanis and Brazilians, and I intensely dislike it, but I need it to keep in touch with school friends, since no one has a Facebook.</p>
<p>yeah, we’re both Indian. >.<. why are we cute. I’m cute, taemi’s so not cute.</p>
<p>thanx a lot Tocf and taemi for hijacking this thread…[:D] </p>
<p>anyway can i please get some more concret answers…</p>
<p>ahem…i beg to differ…
(at this point i must add…i am a guy)</p>
<p>anyway karthik you’ll only get your answer if you can specify a field of study.
every ivy leaguer (or any student) for that matter doesn’t study the same thing you know.</p>
<p>And of course not giving an answer’s so much more fun (now what else could I possibly be referring to??; tell you what Kriti, we’ll let you know in 4 years. :)</p>
<p>Hahahahaha… give her a break and tell her. Or don’t. Make her wait. :D</p>
<p>They go back to their home country and become immensely rich and successful no matter what their level of actual competence, simply because they have a degree from an ivy league university. Expect to become head of state, a top minister, or if you do really well, a despot. If you aren’t offered a 6-figure salary (US$) in your first job straight after you receive your degree you are being ripped off and you should demand more money from your employer. </p>
<p>;)</p>
<p>@ nauru: the six figure salary only comes wih being a CS major or econ or engineering etc. i know some english, drama, communication, art etc. majors who are umm, “unemployed”</p>
<p>Methinks nauru was being just a tad sarcastic there :)</p>
