Thank you for your advice (I reply very late). I will check that.

Hi, Thanks for you reply. I am more interested by a practical master to work for a private company. Do you have some experience of it as a foreigner ? Regards.

Hi all, I graduated years ago with a Master degree in computer engineering from a French university and I have 4 and a half years of experience, including 18 months in the USA. I really appreciated working there and I also admired a lot of universities I visited (the UC, Ivy Leagues). I may consider getting into a MSc program in this country but the fact that good schools are very expensive (at least 30K/year for a good public school for a non resident) frightens me a bit. I also know that it is rare to get into that program and most students go get a job right after they graduate. I was wondering, what kind of school I can reach that would give me a decent ROI ? I got a 3.7 GPA (after converting from the French system), I can get letters of recommendations from academics and managers I worked for. I also did a GRE with 780 in quant and 660 in verbal. Is that a burden to get loans in that field ? I am interested in computer engineering applied to data mining, or even parallel programming Thank you very much !
