Hi Aditya,
Definitely getting into top 20 in US is a tough job, but neverthless if you have a strong profile and motivation, you can make it.
Anyways, coming to your questions, yes ofcourse Canada is right now a good option in terms of Work visa and PR issues. Right now they are offering 3 years of post MBA work permit which is good value add.
Australia again is relatively a better place in terms of work related issues, but probably there aren't B-schools which are at part with the top schools from US/UK/EUR.
UK right now - There is no point for an Indian to go to UK for MBA now. The current situation is the worst it can get and you must be knowing that they cancelled the work permit which they used to provide to the MBA graduates. Job isituation is also very difficult with lower salaries with high expenses and taxes.
New Zealand is kind of an un-explored area and probably think carefully before you invest your money in it.
Asia, however can be also a good option. For example : schools in China and Hongkong. Also Europe some parts are decent if you are up for a language challenge.
Hope it was helpful !
Let me know if you have more questions !
Cheers !

Hi,
I am confused about which country should I choose for MBA? Most probably I have USA in my mind but the problem is MBA is not STEM approved in US and getting top 20 b-school is difficult and its expensive. Is it easy to get h1 visa by employer after MBA within 12 months OPT?
The second one I mostly looking for is Canada. Pros: Less expensive, good education, getting top 10 B-school can be possible. The very big advantage is work permit is there after MBA and getting PR is easy.
Australia is 3rd option but management jobs are not in SOA list, so need experts views on Australia/NZ/UK
Please assist.
Aditya
