UC davis has heavy in-state selection, even more so regional to Nor-Cal Residents. So you might want to remove that one unless you have significant ties to the area!

UC Davis admitted only one non resident last year. Howard accepts applicants from the African American community or those with much service to that community.You should subscribe to the MSAR and find out which schools matriculated at least 3 international students and concentrate on applying to those. St. Louis, Medical College Wisconsin, Tulane, Virginia Commonwealth and New York Medical College are schools you could add.

yeah, I have got MSAR and wanted to add St.Louis, MCW and NYMC, however, they require proof that you have 4-year tuition in the bank account and some even want you to deposit that 4-year tuition - so I cannot really afford that. VCU unfortunately does not accept non-Canadian international students.

Anyway, thank you!
