How does a german college degree transfer over stateside, the degree is in Social Science?

Answer 1

Your degree will count as a "Bachelor's" degree in the U.S. and if you want to continue your education, you will probably start with the "Master's" level. (In some programs you will go right to the doctorate).

If you are looking for a job, the degree will be seen as similar to a bachelor's degree in the U.S.
