Thank you for your responses.
I'll try to answer all the questions and provide more details.
I'm trying to study an MBA or a MS in Business analysis or Engineering. I'm comfortable writing papers in English, I've never studied in the US but I've been living and working there for the last 5 years.
My main objective is to study and live there for 1-2 years, getting an F1 Visa. Completing graduate studies would be a big bump on my career. I also have personals reasons behind my intention to live in California, while I'm studying. If that cannot happen, I'd try to complete a Bachelor's as soon as I can, to get into the graduate path (as international student).
Budget: I have around 50k saved, I could dedicate 20k-30k to study and rest would be for cost of living.
Dedication: in the case of coming to the US, as international student I'd have plenty of time to study. If I need to temporarily remain in Spain and study online, I would have 3-4 hours every day to study, and the weekends.
This is my academic evaluation:
