Can you get an English degree in the UK and still work in the USA


Can you get an English degree in the UK and still work in the USA?
I'm an American student at community college and was considering transferring to a school in the UK because they're cheaper (in some cases). Would I have trouble finding a job when I come back to the USA? I know problems arise if someone is pursuing a medical degree in another country, but I wasn't sure if that applied to English majors as well.

i doubt the school in the UK is cheaper for you than your community college. The prices u see online for the school is probably only for UK students as they get some of their schooling subsidized (paid for) by the government. a bachelors degree in english from the UK however should be fine to use for jobs in the US that you would get w a english degree obtained in the US. you may find problems if you are trying to get into grad school tho, esp bc most bachelors degrees in the England are only 3 years long, and you dont study many of the pre-requisites that most american degrees require.
