I have a preference towards Germany (I did a short-term project working on research at a university there recently), but would be open to somewhere else as well.
My grades from my undergraduate program are good (4.0/4.0 GPA); it's possible my grades could decrease a bit, but I don't expect them to drop significantly in the future (although you never know).
I really do want to learn CS better; I think the opportunity to do that would be good. But the expense / opportunity cost is high enough that it does seem like more of an economic question of "will this help me get a better job?", which there doesn't seem to be a good answer to.
At least where I am, the level of CS teaching in Universities is not as good as in the US (at least my limited sample of known people/universities).
Would you mind saying where that is? (I can email also if you don't want to here)
The nice part about Germany is, that you don't pay any tuition fee there (except Baden-Württemberg). So doing a Master's there is a lot cheaper than in the US.
As for CS, it is possible to work there with a BA, but generally speaking, you will earn more money and have more job opportunities with a MA.

I would have no problem to tell you in private. It is a sensible topic to do it here.
