[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's naive to think that any foreign university, apart from Oxbridge, will likely resonate strongly with the average U.S. employer, no matter how good those schools may be. They just generally lack name recognition here, and that is very likely to result in a competitive disadvantage when applying for jobs alongside candidates from schools which are better known in the U.S. Yes, some employers may be familiar with some foreign schools, and may even think highly of them, but I strongly suspect that will be a minority position. Caveat emptor. [/quote] Sure, if you targeting the “average” US employer you are correct. A kid that goes to one of the top 6-8 UK unis are probably not targeting the Avg US employer, so this is a moot point.[/quote]
