If I get admission in the USA, is there a major chance that I won't be able to get an H1 visa for a Master's?

It depends. While many international students do secure an H-1B work visa after a master's in the USA, the process is competitive due to the annual lottery system.

- Lottery selection rate: Typically around 11 - 18% per year, but as a master's graduate from a U.S. university, you benefit from a separate 20,000 visa cap, which slightly improves your chances.
- Employer sponsorship required: You must secure a job offer from a U.S. employer willing to sponsor your H-1B petition.
- Approval rate: If selected in the lottery, approval rates are generally high (about 88% in recent years).

Visa rules and selection rates are subject to change. For personalized guidance, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
