International student want to study in US from UK
I came to make a reddit post to see external views of what I'm about to get myself into, if anyone can drop advice for me (To make this WORK).
I want to know how good of a shot do I have:
My name is Ryan, live in London
British and Irish passport. 21 years old. Wants to begin study civil engineering/construction management.
I do look a little middle eastern, I'm not white blond hair (perfect US stereotype) though I look after my appearance well dressed and professional. Fluent English born and raised.
I want to study in the US either 4 years in university
Or
2 years collage transfer to 2 more years in university (to save costs that way)
Fall semester 2026
Land a job in civil engineering or construction management after I grad? How hard is that as a international student.
Would it help if I told you were I'm looking to move (options)
Texas
Michigan
New York
California (expensive)
If i can land a job that's great right?
I'm done with the UK i want to move outta here. How good is my path? I don't want to deal with UK and the rain and misery i want a new life and start a family in the long term.
I can use this path as a good stepping stone.
Perhaps marry someone along the way.
