Yes a Masters or higher in a sought after field is a good way to get a work visa. Since you will be going to college soon, you should look into UK universities that have ties with US ones, or courses that include a semester or year abroad. Or if you can afford it, study in the USA- F1 student visas are easy to get but college fees in the US are expensive.

Yes, I was thinking about that or maybe joining some programme where the company will sponsor you.

I am interested in moving out there but i've been looking at all the requirements and its really impossible to get out there. The only way you can get out us by getting a green card which is almost impossible or by getting a job where you can be sponsored. So i've decided to try and get a rare career that nobody in the USA really has such as meteorology but I don't really know what to do to be honest.
I think British subjects in Northern Ireland can apply for the greencard lottery (other British subjects cannot). Look it up (try "diversity visa lottery"); when it works out its great.

Maybe I just need space.

I say need, because I don't believe it to be a want.

STT Resident, why are you so rude? You have been on this person's butt for over two years. Knock it off. It's extremely annoying.

How about joining one of the USA's armed forces, from what i hear you can get quality training in many fields and after you've served you get an easy in to Permanent Residency in the USA. Maybe some one else can give you more specifics.

That is not correct. You need to be a greencard holder to get into any branch of the US military- you CAN get accelerated citizenship once serving though.

So sorry to have annoyed you (extremely) but since the apparently offensive comments aren't directed towards you, surely it would be easier to ignore them and not trouble yourself.

I think this explains what this thread was really about.

Don't fence me in.
