MIT student, not american citizen. Could find work after graduating?

MIT student, not american citizen. Could find work after graduating?
Hi guys. I am 18 years old, and I am currently going to college in Argentina. I would like to apply to MIT as a transfer student. If I get admitted, and if I finnaly graduate as an MIT student, would I be able to find a job, and, in time, finally become a permanent resident? legally, or course. Thank you for your help! Manuel *legally, of course @ chuckles951 Thanks for answering. Unfortunately, I don't have that amount of money to pay for college, but MIT does have an impressive financial aid system which covers for all the money that you can't pay. I think that if I get admitted to MIT, a report from Financial Aid should be enough to get a student visa without having 200.000 USD to pay for college. BTW, I just checked your profile and you have my dream job, no kidding.

Quite possibly. During your allowed one year work after graduating, you get the employer to get you an H-1B visa. Then once you have that they get you a green card and you ate then in. You do realize that to go to MIT you will have to prove to US immigration that you have sufficient funds to cover the expected $50,000 a year to go there.

A couple of issues: 1) You are 18. There is not enough in your record for MIT to judge you good enough to transfer to their school, let alone offer a scholarship 2) Student visas are offered by the US in good faith that you will return to your own country when you have finished the degree (and perhaps an internship year). You should not abuse this good will.
