It would probably be a better idea to get your degree first.

I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did. Smith, P. Bull. Menninger Clinic (1959) 23:20-27; p. 27. ...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely. Osmond, H.

It's definitely hard to citizenship there. An advanced degree will help.

 Seriously though, I don't think they'll take you fresh out of college. Your best bet is to establish yourself here first and if you're successful enough they will take you with open arms. I don't know, maybe I just don't know what I'm talking about.

Are you planning on transferring to a university there? If so, where have you applied? Also, have you looked into how hard it is to get a student visa? I'm not saying its hard, i just simply have never looked.
-------------------- "To do right is to know what you want. Now when you are dissatisfied with yourself it's because you are after something you don't really want. What objects are you proposing to yourself? Are they the objects you really value? If they are not, you are cheating yourself. I don't meant that if you chose to pursue the objects you most value, you will attain them; of course not. Your experience will tell you that. But success in getting after much labor what you really don't care for is the bitterest and most ridiculous failure." -George Santayana
