Dollars and Dreams In following pages, you will find some of the questions submitted by HSB readers. “Dollars and Dreams” course work is 100% based on analysis of your problems. 3www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

Is it possible to get back the money spent for MS by joining high-profile internships during and post-MS in OPT period?

Can we have break up of living expenses? 5www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

How much amount would I need ? Is it gonna be two year tuition fee ? How much can I earn by internship? What if my college is located in a area which do not have many industries ?" 6www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

I made sure that I have two years of tuition fee in my budget for almost all the univs(or atleast one and half years). I left the insurance costs, laptop, living costs assuming that I earn all these by part time jobs. Is my approach correct ? 7www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

What all financial support we can show for I20? Why not shares work as financial support? If a person opts for loan then how he manage to show I20 amount before the loan? 8www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

What is the minimum salary that can be expected after pursuing Masters in USA? 9www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

How long might it take to pay back student debt if one takes up work in USA after MS. Is it financially beneficial to go for PhD or MS? 10www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

Can one source interest-free loan to finance postgraduate program in the USA? If yes,any condition(s) attached? 11www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

"Fees is too high. What is criteria for full scholarship and which scholarships exist if I do not get it from University?" 12www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

"Do I need to produce financial certificates at the time of filling up the application? Is it mandatory to have the solvency certificate in coloured format? What is the maximum cost for the university with living expenses? 13www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

I understand that at least lakhs is required to do MS in USA. I think I can manage by pooling together my savings, some soft loans from family members and take out a token education loan [ just to make sure the visa officer is happy I won't be broke in USA ] How much money should one have ready for the entire duration of 24 months ( assuming no tuition waivers, no campus jobs or RA, TA & I'm only applying to universities with fees in the range of $ for 9 credit hours / semester ) ? 14www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

Why do colleges see our bank balance? I mean, like having lakhs to show before you're admitted? 15www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

Is the amount required during second year of masters same as that required in the first year? What is the total average cost of a higher education in a US college for 4 years? I am pretty tensed about study cost of my masters program. How can I manage it? 16www.HappySchoolsBlog.com

Many of my friends who have joined US universities planned on working on campus. However now they say due to heavy course work they don't find time for any job. What should be done in such case as I am relying on job for covering my daily expenses?Also can you guide how to plan the expenses once we get there and plan it effectively? 17www.HappySchoolsBlog.com
