Hi, I'm recently passed out in civil engineering department. I have lot of interest in data science. I want to pursue my masters in data-science in next 2025 intake, Can you please tell me is it worthy for Masters in data-science for freshers and job opportunities
Hi Nistha, Emailed your office for 2026 admissions. Please let me know when I should contact for a phone inquiry.
It is not only whether to do or not a Masters in USA; the more difficult part is getting a job after the Masters and getting an employer to sponsor H1B. Even if sponsored, the chances of getting picked up in H1B lottery, as of now is one out of six. H1B lottery takes place in April but employment can start only from October 1. The employer should be prepared to wait for you 6 months for you to join. Unless you are an exceptional candidate, no employer will keep the post vacant that long: instead fill it up as early as possible. Please consider these aspects before spending lacs for a Masters in US.
What you said is right. Same problem was faced by my son
There is a easier way to live in US, try to get an American women pregnant in college in a non abortion state, chances you will get married and get citizenship is high 😂😂😂
totally agree with you
@@sujathar5997 Did he managed to solve it? If yes, how so?
After completing the master degree, usually students will get job. But for outside students the cost is very high. Lakhs of rupees or thousands of US dollars are required. After getting the job, students can make up the costs within 2 or 3 years. America is very costly. People do part time job during study. But America is good for future generations i.e. if they will get permanent VISA ,then it is good.
Folks, you got be really serious when you spend so much money with no return other than a good education. In 90's MS in US was a lottery ticket to a good job in US but it is no longer the case and for someone to come to US with the promise of a wonderful life is stupidity these days. For families that can waste 30+lakhs like water its not an issue but for middle class families you really have to think if that is what you want to do.
Hey!
I'm curious about the situation in the US about all the job market. As you said there are people who are struggling to get a job, can I ask which particular field you are talking about?
I want to pursue my Construction management course in the US, do you have any idea about the civil engineering market situation?
pehle ye bta tere ko job nhi mili america mein, isliye bol rha hai, ya fir tu india mein reh ke ye reply de rha hai, mtlb ye mai sun sun ke thak gya ki US mein jobs nhi hai, to kahan hai fir , India mein hain
@@amandeepchopra3097 Same doubt...har koi darane me laga he, yaha mat ana yaha mat jao, america me visa issues, Europe me immigration isues..Toh phir bhenchod jaye toh jaye kaha??
Looking at ROI after 5 years its good but the stress while doing this will make you or break you, currently seeing job market it will break you and your family
@@shreepagare7408 Anything that's not related to AI ML, CS, Data Science, Cloud etc, its a great time to do an MS. However if you are in any of these fields, you are going to basically burn money.
Before starting this process remember you are not going to get job in USA or very tough unless and until you are very good in technology skills especially AI or ML. Next you are going to spend not less than cr. so do your ROI, Its not same now what it was 5 yrs back. Remember you are going to to take loan ot your parents are going to mortgae house for you. I know personally 3 people after grad/ and MS did not get job abd spent 2 to 3 cr.
bro aapke hisaab se to poore world me job hi nhiii hongii na india me na bahar aap btaao kya kre aap ki tarah comment rkrte rhe dusre ki videos me
The cost here is totally an under estimate. Anyhow, after all this hardships what students assumes is that he will find a job & all the financial burden will be over.
But the reality is that the US is now saturated with foreign students. Supply is more than the demand. So naturally not everyone will get job.
Just imagine that this time there were 7 lakh H1B visa applicants for 1.8 lakh available visas.
So every year no of student intake is increasing, there is a huge stagnation.
To add to all this, because of recession like situation companies are on a hiring freeze.
Situation may improve with time but take a informed decision.
Even though India is becoming better than US in the tech job market, people refuse to swallow their ego and build a career here. The craze for a MS degree hasn't dumbed down and in the years to come many more will fly to there
Unless a student takes a 15 year view of what a US degree adds to their career or employment- it is not worth the expense to get a US degree, especially if one pays for the tuition for a Masters Degree.
but H1b Visas are only 80 k , how you come up with figure of 1.8 lakh H1bs
NOW ITSELF WE SEE MOST WESTERN COUNTRIES ARE IMPLEMENTING PROGRAMME TO DEPORT IMMIGRANTS AND LOCALS TOO RESIST STRONGLY ALLOWING THE IMMIGRANTS AND OTHER SETTLED NON WHITE .
One way to get scholarship or funding easier is to apply for a PhD program. (yes people can apply directly for PhD after finishing their undergraduate.)
It can help if you have a lot of interest in research and such things.
Then, Usually, the university will give you admission + funding together as a package, only if when you apply for PhD ( if they cannot give you funding usually they will not even give you admission so you risk only admission fee)
Then after you complete your degree requirements for masters in about two years, then sometimes people can change their mind and they can just apply to their department to graduate with taking a masters degree only, and not continuing PhD program.
This,of course,will not get you a job, but it will help you do your MS with funding and paid tuition from the university.
So if you wanted to apply to 10 universities maybe 5 can be for PhD and 5 for MS programs.( in case you do not get admission into any PhD program.)
This is just the cost factor. The job market in the US is very bad. People are not able to see that. I have colleagues who graduated 1.5 years ago and still have not been able to find a job. Consider this factor too. People are blindly coming to the US thinking that they can easily get a job , which is not the case today. Look into the statistics and then make decision guys.
I WOULD SUGGEST INDIAN GOVERNMENT PUT A CONDITION - SHOULD NOT RETURN TO INDIA UNDER ANY SITUATION. I AM SURE EVEN AFTER ANOTHER 15 YEARS INDIA CAN NEVER BE LIKE US OR EUROPE.
Great Video Nistha Well Explained 👏👏
Hi , Can you do similar Video for MS in UK for Fall 2025
Excellent informative video.. thanks for sharing
Informative video, please cover the same for Germany
Check out todays video
204 dollars are 17000 ruppes and 205 dollars are 16000 ruppes. Dhank U for the info
I noticed the same. ILETS in GBP May be she mistyped.
Currently and possibly for some time down the road the job scene for foreign citizens in US is grim. People should come to study with a Plan B of going back to India. Be careful about the money you plan to spend for the degree as you may be competing with IIT M.Tech guys for the same jobs as outsourcing and AI are increasing.
Hi. Thats a very good video you made. Its not only helpful for students but more so for parents who are going to foot the bill of the education. My daugher has enrolled into Post Graduate Programme in very popular university in India which has a tie up with some Universities in the US like Kent, Rochester, Suny etc. She will be doing here 1st year in India and 2nd year she will complete in the US with any university of her choice. Upon completing that she will get a MS degree from the US universtiy. As parent, I am worried that how am I going to foot the bill without even having an idea of what it is going to cost. Can you give any suggestions?
MS in USA was a jackpot in 80s or 90s. Now it is no more a viable option. If you are really interested and have a passion to pursue masters then MS in US makes sense.
That is actually good. People without passion for doing a master's should not be in USA.
Is it worth for a middleclass family ?
To risk this much with no possible future?
lol wtf nooo
Don’t go, you will get in debt trap
answer is absolutely NO.......trust me seen people wiped out after doing MS in USA and huge loans no job

Congratulations Madam for your eloborate and MS cost informative video. It is really a good one video who would like to do MS in US. One thing I would like to add for any type of treatment is extremely costly and very difficult to consult a doctor. One or 2 months we have to wait for an appointment of consulting doctor. Medical insurance is also very costly. During study students can do part time job. 20 hours in a week. Some students illegally doing more hours, but once he caught, he will be packed to his own country immediately. After struggling all these things and completing MS, then to get a job is very difficult nowadays. Moreover, even if you get a job, any moment lay off can be expected.
My son has completed MS 2 years back in US, we spent around 60 lakhs ( even after doing a part time job) Most of the part time job is working in a cuffe or any departmental stores which have to be in the designated area by university. University to university rules may be changed. Till now my son could not recover one fourth of the money we spent.
Hence before leaving for the USA, all these things to be analysed. Some students get extra ordinary packages also similar to India. This can not be predicted.❤❤
mam i don't understand at CMU they have given the fees structure like for a academic year $57,436 . But u have mentioned like its for 2 years.
So the program fees vary a lot between programs to programs. What she tells us is a ballpark range which should mostly work. But you should always i repeat always look into your specific program website.
For example she said wes evaluation is required for TAMU. I applied to TAMU and I didn't have to submit wes evaluation. I got an admit as well from TAMU. So while this video is a good for a starting point. You should always refer to your program site
@@abcbca431 Thank U fr ur fr the information (I was worried that i need wes evaluation fr Texas A & M) 🫡

google says usd 65k tuition p.a. if Bs in comp science plus hostel food etc add another 15k so 4 years = usd 300 - 320k = rs 2.5 - 2.7 crores😂😂
😮
That's fairly accurate. The cost discussed here was for masters program, 2 years, so cost ould be around half of that.
@@augustine76 1 year master ka kitna hota hai?
How would the cost change for a US citizen who has studied in India untill under-grad?
It wouldn’t change
There will be no visa fees. Rest of the expenses will be same.
How many dollars for a person born in America
@subrahmanyeswararao9597 Fee only goes down if you go to public university from your own state.
What about PLACEMENTS.
Whether still companies come and offer placements for freshers.
Please explain that ALSO.
very informative Mam
Thanks a lot
Dream university for india student switch to other country.
There is one more cost that is not factored in.If you are working in India and earning around 20l per year then in 1.5 years that you spend for an M.S in U.S you lose around 30l+ earnings .
Don't come to US considering current situation.
Excellent breakdown

When you convert to Indian Rupee how $205 become 100rs cheaper than $204?
Medical insurance?
Medical or dental insurance is not mandatory. If you still want you can buy from India, but not sure if it will work when needed. Best will be to look at the medical insurance websites for students going to the US and read their reviews.

Hi Mam, I have completed my Btech in AI & DS. I further wish to do Masters in US. At the same time my ambition is to be a Entrepreneur. Guide my which MS course to choose. After getting 2 yrs exp I have planned to join in Fall 2026. Which are the best public university, which have good academic and placement record
There’s no MS education required to be an entrepreneur. You learn more by doing than in the classroom.
@@ScholarStrategyTV Perfect answer and higher the education it is normally a deterrent to entrepreneurship.
If you want to become ENGERPRNUEr you have to drop thecollege after one or ine and half years and yhen start doint smart and hard work so you maybecome entrepreneur.. 😊😊😊😊
You can finish your masters and go back to India and be entrepreneur
Entrepreneurship doesn’t require to be in the US
There is no relationship between a university ranking and entrepreneurship

hey nishtha, hope you doing well.. can we please do one more video like this for MS in UK 2025?
I'm sharing the current situation regarding the job market and sharing a few tips:
1. The job market is in terrible shape. Students are struggling even to secure internships.
2. Most companies refuse to sponsor visas and have frozen their hiring processes.
3. Investing more than $20k-$25 in college is a significant risk if you plan to come here. The prestige of a college matters mainly if you attend a top institution like UPenn or Stanford.
4. Getting a job is difficult unless you have substantial experience as a software engineer, developer, or in software applications and development.
5. You are unlikely to learn anything extraordinary in a master's program. What you’ve previously learned, combined with online courses, is usually sufficient.
6. Don’t get lured by these consulting agencies: research (in-depth research) college, rent, and the courses you want to pursue; try to connect with someone in the US.
Interestingly, you have summarized our other videos where we have covered exactly all this. So, thanks for validating our content with your experience.
@@ScholarStrategyTV Unfortunately, I haven't watched any of your videos. I was reading the comments and thought I'd give my two cents.
Cooker😂 i gave may daughter 2 small cookera with her and thank god all her tution fees and all other living and food expenses were paid by the university. So i had to spend not more than 3 lacks for her..nothing much

Could you pls tell me is there available job for mathematics students?
University in USA are getting lot of money so students get seats to study. Getting job, work visa and greencard is very tough in US. I feel bad for students who take loan and come here. Job is not guaranteed.
One of my friends who did MS in Texas told me that he spent only nearly 40 l and that to 20 l he could earn doing oncamps jobs
I am startor at all this. Lets say you pay all the fee required before your visa is done ? Lets suppose my visa is refused, now again when i am applying for visa do i have to pay all that again (uni application fee etc) ?
Short answer is no
If your visa is refused, but you already got admission then you can ask the university to delay your joining by one or two semesters. Usually up to one year they will accept a delay in joining
So hopefully when you apply next time, you will get the visa

Can u tell how much that it cost for undergraduation in usa
It is based on university and all but generally, it is going to cost around 70 to 80 lakhs easily. A friend of mine wants to USA for her bachelor's and she took around 85 lakhs from SBI with the help of wemakescholars. You should talk to wms for loan help they got her loan in 20 days for free
imagin you spent all that money and completed a MS and drives a Uber or work as Uber eats!
Cost is very high and middle class people cannot afford. Study in India and go for only job.
Informative. 😅
Undergraduate and Ms in America is a business. America will decide who will get the job and who will not what special are they teaching in their college that cannot be learnt in other country
Recession is expected in 2025, and this time it would effect multiple years. So better postpone the idea of spending 50 to 70 lakhs per year. Instead invest the same in Indian Stocks (be careful, Indian stock mkt would also go down along with US stocks but would recover earlier than rest of the world). Save your parents hard earned money. Once you are done with MS or other course, you may not have a job due to market crunch. India is much much better than any other country now. Jobs are better in India for qualified ones.
Excellent advice... very thoughtful
india has NO JOBS THO what r u on about its literally the biggest rat race in the world low wages mass recruitment???
Thanks madam , so most of them take loans right?

ita a fact people underestimate Indian education but trust me many are not able to get job and in huge loans. They are in big problem now. If trump comes it will be more difficult for Indians.
Maybe US degree can help you get a job in some other country like the Middle East or the old Russian territories or even Malaysia, Indonesia, etc.
