Germany is the most favorable option among Australia, the UK, and Germany for your master's after a US visa rejection.

- Visa approval rate: Germany and the UK both have high approval rates for Indian students (around 90 - 95% for Germany, 94% for the UK). Australia currently has a much higher rejection rate (about 40% for Indian applicants). - Post-study work visa: Germany offers an 18-month job-seeker visa, the UK provides a 2-year Graduate Route, and Australia allows 2 - 4 years depending on your qualification. - Tuition and living costs: Germany's public universities typically have low or no tuition fees, with moderate living expenses. The UK and Australia have higher tuition and living costs.

Germany stands out due to its high visa approval rate, strong post-study work options, and low education costs.
