What exams you’ll need to take, and what you’ll need to do in order to apply, will vary by university and country. Each university will have a special page, under admissions, for international students which will clarify exactly what you need to do in order to apply.
I’ll talk about US schools.
At a minimum, you’ll need to take the TOEFL – Test of English as a Foreign Language – and score above a certain point in order to qualify. You may also have to take specific subject exams, such as the GRE, the GMAT and etc., depending on what field you plot to study. You may also need to have your undergraduate transcripts/diploma certified and/or translated, and there will be other requirements.
You can apply for a master’s degree in something directly related to your undergraduate degree, or in something that will build upon it. So you can apply for an MBA, if you’d like. In some circumstances, you can even apply for a master’s in something completely unrelated, such as MFA creative writing, or MS Social Work. It depends on your interests, your skills, and what career you hope to pursue.
As for when to apply, that varies by university. In general, you’d apply in around November to be admitted for the following September.
You’ll first have to locate the international university or college and obtain all the requirements of their country for a USA citizen/student to be eligible. Once they say you, they will provide you with all the requirements necessary. You will or may have to also become a citizen of some foreign countries in order to be eligible, as most countries rules and guidelines are very different. As far as the exams go, they are very similar to the USA and the best time to apply is normally in the Summer months. If you want to secure a degree in electronics and are currently a graduate student, you would not have any issues in being accepted as long as you take the appropriate steps when told of your elibibility. Any other questions, you should probably speak with your Guidance Counselor here in the USA regarding attending, transferring or going to another school outside of the USA!!
Excellent luck with your studies!

G’day,
From the 4 countries you mentioned, Australia is most likely have the lowest cost of living, and probably the lowest tuition fee as well due to currency exchange. For Australia, on top of tuition fees, you will need to pay for campus fee (vary from each uni) and Overseas Student Health Cover (abt AUD$350/yr) and text books (abt AUD$200). These are the rough estimate of the fees for your study.
Before coming to Australia, you will need to pay the fee for student visa processing and health check-up. Depending on your country of origin you may also be required to take an IELTS test for proof of your English proficiency for application to uni and for visa (www.ielts.org).
You can apply for different Masters course, so it doesn’t have to follow your previous bachelor degree course. To be eligible for a Masters course in Australia, you will need to have the degree that deemed as equivalent to Australian Bachelor Degree. You will need to fill in the application form and send them together with the certified copy of all of your academic transcripts. If they cannot accept you for the Masters course, they may offer you a place in their Bachelor degree course with credit transfer, so you do not have to study from year 1 again.
There are only 42 (soon to be 43) universities in Australia, all of them are fully accredited and they are tightly controlled, therefore the quality and recognition of their graduates are equal from wherever university you are studying from. The most vital thing is you have to READ the course information carefully, since some courses may have the same name but different content.
To find out the latest info abt course that you are interested in taking and where it is offered, I suggest you to go to the Dept. of Education, Science and Training website (http://cricos.dest.gov.au) or IDP Education Australia (www.idp.edu.au). It will give the list of institutions that are able to offer courses to international students who wants to continue their study in Australia. The info abt fees and requirements are available from the universities’ websites. Please make sure that the information you are accessing are the one for International Students. It will also tell you when can you start your course (Feb or July intakes). You can apply as early as you can, since the admissions process can take abt 2-3 weeks, depending on the day of the year.
Hope this helps. Excellent luck for your study
