Hi everyone,

I am a Canadian student attending pharmacy school in the U.S. with a F-1 visa. I am in my P4 year and am thinking of applying to residency. However, I saw that for VA hospitals, you need to be a U.S. citizen. Is this a requirement for VA hospitals only?

Thank you for answering in advance!
