<p>How much harder is it for an international student to get admitted into med school (and a good one) in the states assuming stats are on par with the pool?</p>
<p>I’m completely fluent in english and will be attending an ivy for undergrad.</p>
<p>Significantly would be my guess from looking at the admissions numbers. Most schools only take a handful (ie countable with two hands) of internationals a year.</p>
<p>oh, and what about tuition costs and such? would it be different for internationals?</p>
<p>Is there anyway to obtain citizenship while doing undergrad? Just a thought</p>
<p>blitz:</p>
<p>You ought to do some research on your own. Asking about tuition costs and the path to US citizenship on a message board is probably not the best way to get information.</p>
<p>You’d be counted as an out of state student at state schools, so there you would be charged more. Private schools do not differentiate, so your tuition costs would remain the same. </p>
<p>Regarding citizenship, I wouldn’t expect to go from foreign citizenship to US citizenship in four years. You can check the US government websites to get more information about this.</p>
