Do degrees transfer between the United States and Great Britain?

Question

I am an US citizen interested in going to university in Wales. My father believes that the degree would not be good for anything in the US because the degrees do not transfer so it would be pointless for me to go to school in Wales. Is this true? If so, is there a way around it? I thank you in advance for any and all pertinent and valid information.

Answer 1

yes i want to transfer over there. but i don't know a procedures

Answer 2

That's not true - a degree from a respected university in one country is good in almost any country.

There are some problems in translating your degree from one educational system to another, so if you're going to get an advanced degree from a university outside of Britain, you may have a few extra steps to complete, but that's not a big problem and the school that you're going to attend will help you with it.

In terms of employment, you shouldn't have any problems.
