• CMU INI offers two courses which are highly suitable but with exorbitant tuition fees
According to the post below, they often/usually give a $20,000 tuition waiver, but the program is still relatively expensive:

3. What should be my probable list of colleges that I should be applying to? (MS in CS and MS in a course similar to that mentioned in (2)).


I don't know. First, you need to find the programs that are best suited for your career interests, and a traditional CS degree, as you say, is often not the most practical degree compared to a degree in networking, etc.

Can you guide me regarding other MS programs that are of similar nature? (i.e. Courses dealing both with MS CS and Management).
What exactly are your career goals? Do you want to be a program manager? Do you like working with people?

Since I am U.S. citizen by birth, I am not the most familiar with how companies recruit H1B workers. Certainly, many of the graduates at CS grad programs are international students, so there must be significant recruiting going on at the CS grad programs that are either high ranking or just very large. Also, from what I gather, getting any graduate degree in the US gives you legal priority for getting an H1B.
