UK VS US School and Salary

A UK Student who realized that UK finance industry salaries are much lower compared to the Americas. So my goal after University is to transition into the American workforce. 

Is it extremely difficult to transition into the American Finance Industry(IB, PE, VC, and PE) as a UK graduate or is it easier to attend an American school as an international, graduate then enter IB.
