Machine Learning
The Reality of Moving to the U.S. for a Master’s —
For most professionals, it’s too much, too fast:
– Quitting your job overnight
– Uprooting your life mid-career
– No time to prepare academically
– ₹50–60 lakh cost upfront, all at once
– No clarity on visa, housing, or what comes next
– Adapting to a new system — under pressure
– No support system in a new country
This program offers a smarter, safer path —
Time to plan.
Time to prepare.
Time to grow — step by step.
With 6 months from India and 12 months in the U.S. —
so you're ready to study, ready to work, and ready to build your career in the U.S.
You begin at RV University (RVU) in Bengaluru.
During this phase, you’ll study the Arizona State University (ASU) U.S. curriculum online, with classes held over the weekends — making it ideal for working professionals and recent graduates.
You build a strong foundation across key domains like AI, machine learning, data visualization, business intelligence, predictive analytics, and enterprise data strategy—grounded in real-world applications and industry tools.
You're also fully trained for the U.S. visa interview — with everything from documentation to mock rounds handled end-to-end.
By the end of 6 months, you're ready — academically, personally, and with your visa approved — to move to the U.S. for the final 12 months.
For the next 12 months, you move to Arizona State University (ASU) — ranked #2 in the U.S. for employability among public universities*.
Alongside academics, you’ll receive structured career training — from building a strong resume and portfolio to preparing for interviews and internships.
These 12 months equip you with the skills and confidence to graduate ready — and take the next step: working in the U.S. through OPT (Optional Practical Training), a work authorization valid for up to 3 years.
*As per the Global Employability University Ranking and Survey, 2025.
You finish your Master’s (MS) in Business Analytics, a STEM-designated program, making you eligible to work in the U.S. with ASU's top recruiters like Amazon, American Express, Apple, Intel, Microsoft, Deloitte, Goldman Sachs, Oracle, EY-Parthenon, and KPMG, via OPT work authorization.
Since the first six months are based in India, your tuition and living costs are up to 40% lower compared to a fully residential program in the U.S.
This gives you more time to plan, save, and manage your expenses step by step.
If you're among the first 25 students to apply, you can get a no-collateral education loan that covers up to 100% of college fees and on-campus student housing (hostel).
You won’t have to fund everything upfront—giving you time to plan.
