Study and Career Opportunities in the USA

Posted on Mon 26th Feb, 2018 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


The United States has the largest international student population in the world due to its reputation for providing world-class education. This is supported by 61 universities included in the World Top 100 rankings.


However, the opportunity goes beyond earning a degree. International students on F-1 visas are also legally provided with the opportunity to work at major companies via Curricular Practical Training (CPT) during their studies, and Optional Practical Training (OPT) following graduation. If a student is pursuing studies in the fields of STEM (Sciences, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) they can legally pursue OPT and work full-time for up to 3 years. At Master’s level, this can mean students accessing employment with significant salaries, providing an excellent return on investment and creating a platform for a meaningful career. With unemployment rates at records low levels (4.1% as of January 2018), there has never been a better time to invest in studying in the USA.

Another feature of US universities is the opportunity to access high value scholarships. Many universities will provide merit based scholarships for academic performance. Examples of universities offering graduate scholarships, with attractive CPT/OPT opportunities are referenced below.

Research reports point to Post-MBA starting pay increasing 41-50% over Pre-MBA pay.MBA starting salaries in the US can range from US$55,000 to US$85,000 depending on concentration and experience.
