“This may be of less importance if I decide to stay back in the US”

Unfortunately, this may or may not be something that is up to you to decide. My husband originally came here on an H1b visa, so I’m familiar with the process and its not something you should count on.

It may be very challenging for you to find a US employer who is willing to go through the paperwork, hassle, time and expense to hire a non-US citizen. It is becoming more and more difficult to get visas that used to be fairly commonplace, like H1Bs, so employers are less willing to undertake the expense and risk.

Not to say it’s impossible, but please don’t base your decision on being able to stay and work in the US because there’s a fairly substantial chance that may not be possible. Make your decision on college assuming you will need to find work in your home country so if that happens you’re not at a disadvantage.
