Should I finalize USA and Dubai as the two countries to move forward with for a Master's?

Yes, the USA and Dubai are both strong options to consider for your master's studies within your ₹20 lakh budget.
- USA: Offers a wide range of master's programs, including STEM fields with up to three years of post-study work (OPT). Tuition and living costs can be managed with affordable universities, scholarships, and part-time work.
- Dubai: Provides reputable universities, lower living expenses, and a tax-free environment. Tuition fees for many programs fit within your budget.
Your decision should depend on your preferred program, career goals, and lifestyle.
