I am looking out for advices and suggestions regarding the same. Any tips for pursuing MSCS. I have below questions in mind, would be grateful if you can answer. 1. What things should I keep in mind while pursuing? 2. Will my exp be counted after completing MS from USA? 3. How much compensation can I expect after post grad?

Toxic people brings garbage! No need for your validation if you dnt have anything constructive🙂
2. you will be considered for fresh graduate roles and will have to hunt for jobs that sponsor visa. It is not like India, where companies come for campus placement and 100% of the class has jobs.
Yes, I am already preparing for that. Are there any specific things that I can start doing rn to increase my chances for that? Does startups also sponsor or shall I just focus on Big Firms? 😓
all depends and companies are selective. “Networking” is the key word. Acing your exams and sitting at home wont do any good. Also, scoring internships help. More grants/scholarships are available for PhD. People enroll in PhD and if they get a job then graduate with MS(after they accumulate enough credits). If not continue with studies.AND DONT EVER MENTION THIS PLAN IN YOUR APP/interviews
If you're looking at a stable path towards permanent residency/citizenship I'd recommend going to Canada, becoming a citizen there and then eventually coming to the US on a TN visa. You may be forced into this route later if your H1b doesn't materialize.
Hi OP,I'm in the same boat and completed my applications. Waiting for admits. Choose universities location>>rankings Low tuition and high ROI Did you take required standardized tests?
Hi, more power to you. I am planning for drexel, heard alot good reviews about the teachers and other side things. Fee is slightly on the higher side, but not sure about the ROI! Thats why, trying to reach out people and understand the situations😓
If you're going to apply for fall 2024 . We will end up in a slightly good market in early 2026 or late 2025. I hope things will get better.I recommend applying to SJSU,SDSU and UB.
