APRecess:

I’m not sure how difficult citizenship will be; I have an American family member.

Is it possible and is there any benefit to applying for citizenship right now, as a 9th grader?

You cannot directly become a citizen. You need to apply for permanent residency first (and then wait 3 or 5 years). Is this an immediate family member who can sponsor you?

The other pathways to residency (employment based and through marriage) aren’t really realistic for a 9th grader.

I suggest worrying less about all these things right now, and focusing on having the strongest high school experience you can put together - by doing things you love doing and excelling in them. That’s your best path to selective schools.
