Help me to follow my dreams ! #Bangladeshi_Student

@b@rlum, The way I interpreted the OP’s objective was that s/he wants to go to college outside of Bangladesh. A lot of 16/17 year olds think they’re headed for medical school, but end up changing course for various reasons.

You’re right though, if medical school is the immediate top priority s/he’s better off pursuing that some place other than the US.

I’m an American expat living in a country that has a lot in common with Bangladesh and I’ve seen quite a few nationals attend US colleges both for undergraduate and medical school. They definitely received financial aid for undergraduate school, but I never thought about how they financed med school. Maybe their family’s had more money than I was aware of.

@MYOS1634, interesting, thanks.

@paul2752, the good news is that many colleges now classify undocumented immigrants who graduate from college in the US in the same category for admissions as US citizens. This helps to reduce competition in the international pool.
