Can a foreign become a real estate agent in California?

I want to become a real estate agent in the state of California. I want to take the course and pass the exam. I meat all the requirements including education. I hold a Bachelor in Commerce and a Master in Business Administration - Marketing. But it's not clear to me if a non citizen can become a real estate agent. Somebody please explain, 10 points to the best answer.

1. If you have the proper work visa you might work in the United States. In California, with the degrees you have, if they are from a recognized college you might apply for a real estate brokers license. With the real estate broker license you would be able to open your own real estate office or work under a current real estate broker. You should check with the local immigration office and apply for a work permit. There are several that you would be able to apply for. I hope this has been of some benefit to you, good luck.
