It’s exceedingly hard to emigrate anywhere legally.
People generally travel and overstay their visas, hoping for the best. It’ll be a rough life, though. The question is whether or not it’ll be rougher than what you’re leaving behind.
Hard to emigrate legally??? I moved to Australia and they’re they’re thirsty for any kind of graduate diploma for the people wondering about student debt. And many more places to go if you’re not a sticker for 1st world, but also many that pay you while you’re studying in North Europe.
On a permanent basis, yes, and OP seems to indicate that they’re wanting to leave the US permanently. Lots of countries will let people enter on a temporary basis, hence my comment about overstaying one’s visa.
That’s an important distinction.
I covered all basis. Try studying in Sweden, most courses are in English. With a diploma in hands it opens the door for many countries and permanent migration.
