    Hi,
    I have just arrived to US on a dependent VISA. I have only a bachelor's degree in Commerce. Can I pursue any course here? Is it very costly here? Can anyone please suggest some good courses and also the steps like GRE/TOEFL etc. I have no clue..

    Will my having only a Bachelor's & not a Master's degree be a roadblock?

    I have 17yrs of managerial experience in a Financial Institution in India.

    Hi,

    Since you are on a dependant visa, you won't be able to work but studying is a great option. I see you are based in Fairfax. Check out George Mason University, the nearest public university for you. They have a list of graduate (Masters level) courses and international student requirements. If you just want to pursue courses for personal enrichment or certificate courses, check Northern Virginia Community College. You don't need GRE/GMAT to study in a community college.

    Hope this helps!!

    Thank you Urvisins,
    I will check GMU & the community college. With my BCOM from India can I pursue a Masters in USA?
