Hello, a friend of mine is a strong systems programmer from Poland but has not graduated from college. Is he basically unable to get a work visa for the US?


If he has a lot of experience, then he might have the equivalent of a bachelor's degree, which would make him potentially eligible for an H-1B visa. Also, if he's very accomplished and talented, even without a degree, he might qualify for an O-1 visa; education is not a requirement for the O-1 visa.
