Now talking to Indians myself, I know that U.S. institutions for degrees are still held in higher regard, but if you think about what will start to happen, is that you'll get many couples who have both had free college bachelors degrees in India, and many of them come over here for graduate degrees to be better positioned for H-1B visas, and I'll need to check on this, but I think there are provisions for support for these degrees in this program too. Now, both husband and wife will come here and spend their college money on graduate degrees to be set up for H-1B visa jobs, especially with this newer provision. They spend all of their college money just on the graduate degree here locally, and American college graduates are heavy in debt with just bachelor's degrees that they had to pay for, and now more of them without jobs, and don't have money to spend on graduate degrees here themselves.
