    Hi Swapna, the eligibility to pursue MS programs depends on the course you are choosing. Most of the courses look for your GRE and TOEFL scores and your under graduation degree to see the relevance of your program choice. 15 years of education is readily accepted in several US universities. Let me know the program you are interested in along with your professional background which would be helpful in guiding you.
