Most graduate students are able to obtain stipends that cover living expenses and fees. Both undergraduate and graduate education in the US is excellent across the board in most universities. In India, except for a small tier of institutions at the top, the quality of undergraduate and graduate education is highly variable and typically of poor quality. A green card provides only incremental benefit to someone who is coming for education to the US; it is of greater benefit if the person is going to stay on in the US to work.
I would any day do graduate training in the US rather than in India. shyam __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
