c) Undergrad students go through the bitter experience and learn core values of life. They always know what it takes to graduate, how every penny counts for tuition?, How to juggle between work, social life and studies.

I second that.

Also, if you come here as undergrad, and say you spend 7 years to complete a 4 year course, you are actually doing your folks back home a huge favour. If they are still earning their salaries or other incomes in Nepal, at least they don't have to spend that on you for at least 5and half of those 7 years. That is the money they get to enjoy, to rebuild their dreams (and this time, it is not just you). That is the time they get to spend together without having to worry about.. aba chora lai kaha pathaune...

A lot of students come to US for masters because their Bachelors' degree in Nepal did not find a decent use or value. Instead of getting this divine enlightenment after spending your parents' money for half baked degrees like BBS or BCIS, the undergrads in US are better off than the Masterwalla were at with a similar degree from India or Nepal. Listen closely to every undergraduate visa applicant at the embassy - their response always is ' Amrika degree is recognized worldwide' and this is important for what it is worth.

Also, Masters students don't have the same parties and babes and hunks that undergrads have...
