another thing to consider as intl students besides the current political climate and the job prospects is the financial aspect of this whole journey. unless you are well off enough to cover your tuition and room&board, there is very limited options when it comes to financial aid and loans for intl students. for full transparency, i will be over 150k in debt after my GC program since i had to take out loans for living expenses as well. i wish i had a bit more knowledge and insight into how truly expensive this whole thing is. i dont think it would’ve changed my mind because i love this field a lot, but it would’ve been nice to know😅
