probably...

CDs will work, no problem. DVDs, however, are region coded and have other technical issues around them. To get the DVD to play, either get a region-free DVD player, or use a program like DVDShrink to rip & re-encode the DVD without the region setting.

CDs always work around the country, but DVDs are more highly protected and only work within the same country/continent.

Yes, but you'll have to change most of the settings.

For calls and texts, maybe. You have to unlock it to use it. And you won't get 3G data on it because AT&T uses different data frequencies than you do in the UK. By the way, just in case you didn't know this, it's highly unlikely you'll be able to do this. When you buy an iPhone in the US, you *must* get a contract. That's why the price is so "low." The phone is subsidized on a two-year contract, and as a foreign national, you won't qualify.

Can I attend college in the USA if I want to work in England

Can I attend college in the USA if I want to work in England?
I currently live in the USA- I grew up here. I'd like to live in England someday but I would rather go to college here first. If I get a degree here, would it be recognized in England for a position such as a Veterinarian or a doctor?

Your main problem will be achieving the required permanent residency or citizenship in a European Union country. If you have a grandparent who was born in one, you might be able to obtain it.

What should I do first to work in England - get a job or get a visa

What should I do first to work in England - get a job or get a visa?
Hi, I'm thinking of moving to England to work, but I'm not sure on what I need to do first - apply for jobs and only then when I've been accepted for the job to get a work visa, or get a work visa first, then apply for jobs? I also thought I read that for a work visa, the UK border control asks for my UK address - so would I have to find work AND a place to live before I apply for a work visa? Oh, sorry - I'm from the US

When asking a question like that, make sure you tell us where you live. Without it we can't answer your question unless we guess! If you are highly qualified you may get a visa and a job, but if you are not, then finding work will be almost impossible right now. If you were from another EU country you wouldn't need a visa, but the same would apply about finding a job, near on impossible right now.

There are two ways of approaching towards working in the United Kingdom. You get a visa first and then start seeking for a job or you find a company willing to instate and sponsor you first, and then apply for the visa. To get the visa first you need to have certain qualifications, and must have made a certain amount of money before tax deduction during the last year or a period of 12 months out of the last 15 months. You also need to show sufficient funds (at least $ 4.390) to cover your initial stay in England. Examples for visa eligibility: a) bachelor's degree, 28 years, last years earnings: + $ 62.680 b) master's degree, 30 years, last years earnings: + $ 78.350 c) PHD, 34 years, last years earnings: + $ 54.845 d) PHD, 28 years, last years earnings: + $ 47.010 e) no degree, last years earnings: + $ 235,050 The visa application involves a fee of $ 1,104.00 http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf21pbsgeneralmigrant#21980509 .. Sponsored skilled worker categories are: • General – for people coming to the United Kingdom with a job offer to fill a gap that cannot be filled from within the resident or EU labour force. This category is also for applicants coming to fill shortage occupations. ◙ [Note: almost impossible to find at the current economical situation] ◙ • Intra-company transfer - for employees of multi-national companies who are being transferred to a United Kingdom based branch of the same organisation either on a long term basis or frequent short visits. There are 3 sub-categories of Intra-Company Transfer: — Established Staff – for established employees of multi-national companies who are being transferred to a skilled job that could not be carried out by a new recruit from the resident labour workforce. — Graduate Trainee – for recent graduates of multi-national companies who are being transferred t the UK branch of the same organisation as part of a structured graduate training programme, which clearly defines progression towards a managerial or specialist role. — Skills transfer – for new recruits of multi-national companies who are being transferred to learn the skills and knowledge needed overseas. The visa application involves a fee of $ 432.00 http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf26pbsskilledworker#21982930 ..
