Doubt regarding residency application

[nani1989]

Hello,

I'm a FTD who is about to finish a 2-year IDP program with a DDS degree from one of the schools here in US. So, if I plan to apply for a residency programs do schools consider me as an International student or a regular student (since I would be getting a DDS)who needs visa sponsorship? In other words, for admissions into residencies do all the students who need a visa sponsorship be automatically considered as an international student regardless of a DDS degree?

PS: I'm on a student visa.

Thank you.

Yes. You're still considered an International applicant. But there are no reserved International spots in speciality residencies. You will compete with all the other applicants and will be considered an international applicant as far as Visa, stipend (answer to which is no) and tuition is considered.
