Transfer from Canadian Liberal Arts University to an American College? Fees? Tuition? Work Visa

Transfer from Canadian Liberal Arts University to an American College? Fees? Tuition? Work Visa?
I am a 26 year old waiter/carpenter/student working on a Bachelor of Arts degree in History at a Liberal Arts school in Ontario. My girlfriend is in the process of potentially transferring as a nurse in Canada to Virginia for a contractual term and our decision is hinging on whether I would be able to go with her and be socially productive (work or school). My idea is to perhaps get a transfer from my University to a College in the area, to finish my very last semester, but I am uncertain as to how much a semester of tuition costs for an average University in the States and whether the transfer is a smooth one. Most importantly however, I want to see if I hypothetically take correspondence courses at my current University to finish up, what could I do to get a work Visa? Even if only temporarily. Any help is appreciated

Ask your present university if it will allow you to finish by correspondence and/or whether it will allow you to do your last semester at the American uni where your girlfriend is going to live Ask that American university if it will accept you for just one semester. Ask the US authorities if you can get a working visa.

foreigners taking our jobs? Not just blue collar

foreigners taking our jobs? Not just blue collar.?
How come if I as an American, go through a great nursing or medical or even law school, get my degree and have experience, can't take my degree and move to say, Canada or Australia with it? Everyone else in the world can take their degrees over here and take our jobs, but we can't do the same to them? What in the H-E-L-L are these politicians thinking? What is this somthing to do with Nafta?

there is nothing to blame on foreigners I mean all or most of the current populace of the USA is all of foreign desent unless you have been born Native American
2 :
what job had your name on it... YOUR government is giving , GIVING jobs away...and to the lowest bidder. OWnership in the USA is now a relative term...
3 :
because the education here is much MUCH LOWER than other Countries. I had to repeat my senior year when I went to study in another country. in Chile (where i went ) they start teaching intro Physics (mandatory) in 8th grade it's optional here , you're lucky to have that as a Senior. Thats why, Foreigners are much more smarter, i am glad i got the rest of my education Else where we are not taking your jobs, we have better qualifications, experience, better education.

how is that a foreigners fault. technically you are the foreigner going to other countries. maybe your degree just isn't worthy enough to be recognized.
5 :
When I was working in Engineering, I had no problems getting jobs in both Canada and Korea, and all of my foreign colleagues were complaining about how difficult it is for them to get into the U.S. There are certain fields where you need to be professionally licensed (such as nursing, medicine, and law). If I want to work as a doctor in the U.K., I need to complete their licensing requirements, and if a U.K. doc wants to come over here then he has to complete ours. That's a professional licensing issue, not international policy. The grass is always greener on the other side...

Nursing in Australia can be done either as an undergraduate or graduate degree so your high school diploma should be enough to get you into a course (if of course they meet the required uni standard). If you know where your man's music school will be, look up the nursing course info at nearby universities and look for undergraduate degrees.
