Hey folks,

This may be a duplicate thread but I didn't see anything relevant to my situation... So here we go

I will be looking to accept a job offer in the states for nursing, once I get my green card and become a resident in X state, will I be able to have in-state privileges? Or will I always be viewed as a Canadian when applying to med schools in America?

Would appreciate some clarification in this issue, unfortunately I don't have anybody who is able to answer this in my local network.

EDIT: ANSWERED! 🙂

once you have a green card as a legal resident you would be considered American for purposes of applying to medical school.

Thank you!

I highly recommend getting it in writing that they will begin your green card immediately after you start the job. It's a very long process!

Yes! Arrangements will definitely be finalized before the big move. Thanks 🙂
