Hello,
I'm going into my first year of University at the University of Saskatchewan. I am an American citizen and am attending university in Canada, because I fell for a Canadian citizen. Plus the university campus is gorgeous, I received a fairly big scholarship (important because I'm a resident of California where everything is sky high in price) and I am given some decent work opportunities starting next summer. Possibly even at a hospital.
I know my GPA for my first two years is the most important thing...followed by volunteer, shadowing and research experiences and that I can apply to take the MCAT during the summer of my second year of university.
My biggest challenge seems to be this...
What Canadian medical schools will accept me as a citizen of the USA? What Californian medical schools with accept me with a Canadian educational background? What can I do to improve my odds of even attending any medical school? Is there a way for me to become a permanent resident by the time I apply to the medical schools?
I'm simply full of unanswered questions!
I would appreciate any responses that can help to shed some light on my predicament.
Thank you!
