I've always wondered if students that decided to go to college/university outside of the USA could find employment in America or if they got into grad school in USA. Also, what if a student who got his bachelors in USA decides to go to grad school in Canada, if he returns to USA, will his master of science be valid in America?

I'm not quite sure, but generally, I don't think so. My dad had a masters in some sort of science when he lived in Asia, and it doesn't seem to help him that much...he's an accountant...

i think it does and for the first poster im sure his degree did help him in terms of being an accountant I know my friend is from Africa and he has a teaching degree and he was able to take classes at the graduate RN level here so yeah it depends but it wont hurt also if youre bilingual in Asian/Spanish it doesnt hurt

They have something called accreditation www.abet.org It depends on your field of study and if there is a licensing exam or not. The reason for the accreditation issue is money and to protect US higher education institutes survival.

I think yes but there is a VERIFICATION PROCESS of it which is very tough...

It depends on the subject of the degree and which university it came from. Do you think anyone cast doubt on Bill Clinton's degree he got at Oxford? Degrees in medicine need to be as good as US ones, before a foreign doctor can work here.

Because the US is so much larger than most countries, it can afford to ignore the standards other countries use to measure achievement. It depends on the employer.
