Hi everyone.
I am a BSN student and was wondering what to major in after my MSN. I want something with a better pay of course but also with a future. I sound like I am money oriented, but have just spent so much on my education and it is high time i got something back. I care a lot about patient's care and would do everything possible to help them get the best service possible.
Here are the specialties at my university:

Does that mean that the MSN will transfer without problem back to the US? Also, I know non-citizens can't work in many countries regardless of licensure/degrees due to visa restrictions. It certainly isn't common for a new grad to up and move to SA and get a job as a nurse at a hospital, so I'm just curious what your story is. If you will be working full-time as a new nurse, you WILL have more than enough to keep you busy without enrolling in a MSN program. Not to mention, taking advantage of being in a different country and not spending all of your time working or studying. If you won't be able to work while there, that does pose more of a dilemma professionally and I could better understand your wanting to look into what you could do to help yourself professionally while there - such as earn a master's degree. Sounds like it will be an interesting two years whatever you do. Are you excited about it? Or stuck with it via a spouse or the like? Just more curiosity questions!
