what are the requirements for applying to a medicine school as an international student in the USA?

Many U.S. medical schools are state universities, with heavy preference for applicants from the region, with a few outside applicants.  You may have better luck with a private medical school.  \nU.S. med schools accept almost exclusively applicants with a bachelor's degree at minimum, although to be competitive, a master's degree can help.  The MCAT is also necessary for consideration for admission.\nI've met very few international med students in the U.S., most people interested in training here finish med school in their native country, focus on the USMLE (the board exams for residency application) and apply for residency positions through the residency match.  Look into the fifth pathway program.

Basically there are only three requirements.\n1.  You have to have a student visa\n2.  You have to be accepted at the university\n3.  You have to have enough money to pay the tuition\n\nApply at the university where you want to attend and once you've been accepted, then they'll help you with the rest.\nGood luck!

Most of the school in USA is only has Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm D) program and I think you need to have M Pharm to apply for it.

You need to contact that university's admissions office and find out the application requirements.  Once they decide to accept you, they normally help you submit the passport/visa paperwork.

You only have to take five required classes to get into medical school:\nYear of:\nchemistry (physical)\norganic chemistry\nbiology \nphysics\ncalculus \n\nOther science classes are recommended, especially biochemistry.\n\nYou can major in whatever subject.\n\nGoing to a particular school gives no priority in getting an admission to their medical school.  Getting into medical school is often based on these three areas:  GPA, MCAT scores and life experience/experience with medicine.

For the USA:\n\nFirst and foremost, you must work on your English.  You mean, "How can I get admitted to medical school in the U.S. or Europe?"\n\nU.S. programs require something called the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).  You need to score well on this test.\n\nAnother test is the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test).\n\nYou will also need to meet certain academic requirements, such as having sufficient biology, chemistry, physics, antatomy, phsyiology, etc entry coursework completed as an undergraduate student.\n\nYou will also need to demonstrate the economic ability to sustain yourself in the U.S..  This may include scholarships and loans, but these are unlikely because so many foreign students want this as well!  You will need to be an excellent student if you want a scholarship!\n\nThere may be independent scholarships that might be found at places like www.fastweb.com - BUT most scholarships will be directly through the school.  Ask the admissions officers.

you have several options:\n\n1. Student Visa - for this you need to take TOEFL test (Test of English as a Foreign Language) and apply to an American university. If you get accepted you can than apply for student visa. \n\n2. Tourist Visa - for this you just need to apply to the Embassy and prove them you have enough money to travel to the U.S. and come back.\n\n3. Fiancee Visa - find an American and marry him/her. \n\n4. Visitor Visa - if you have a friend/family member here they can send you invitation and you can come to visit them.

I think your best bet is to look into a student visa. Go through a list of American colleges that you would like to attend and look at their websites. Each website will have a section to mention their stand on International students. Most colleges need to fill a quota for international students so they do offer scholarships, and being admitted to one of these schools will allow you to apply and receive a student visa while you are studying in college. hope this helps.

You might want to start by looking at the home pages of some specific colleges. Find where they list their graduate programs and look to see what their international requirements are. You may also want to telephone one directly (probably talk to the registration department) and ask them what you will need. I'm sure each school has their own requirements. \n\nGood luck!!! I admire you for going on after so much schooling already!

You need to find out EXACTLY what pre-requisits you need for medical school.  If your college cannot tell you this...contact the medical school(s) you plan to apply to.\n\nGood luck...it's a long hard road.  College and medical school are the easy part.  It's internship, residency, and life that are the buttocks kickers.

I think international students still have to take the SAT test? Maybe I am wrong.\nOne person suggested Yale, Stanford , Princeton. They only accept people with near-impeccable records.\nTemple University in Philadelphia is an excellent school - most of the journalists in Philadelphia went there, and they also have a very good medical and dentistry program. It is one of the most diverse schools in the country, and is a city campus.\nI highly recommend looking into this.

I have already answered a similar question and this is a repeat of my earlier Best Answer.\n\ncheck the following site for\nMedical Education in the US and how foreign doctors can work in USA.\nhttp://www.fulbright.co.uk/eas/studyus/s...\nI have worked with Indian doctors wanting to go to USA.They adopt the following strategy:\n1.They take USMLE part 1 and part 2 exams in India.\n2.For the 3rd part they have to go to USA as the exam is conducted there only.\n3.Normally visa for doctors is discouraged and as such they go for a MPH or other allied graduate programs in USA.\n4. They have to take GRE/TOEFL for getting admission in these programs.\nYou may contact me admit2003atrediffmail.com\nNBS\nAdmission Source\nSCO 139-141\nSector 17C\nChandigarh\nIndia

There is no law that prohibits you from applying to universities, however it may be better if you just apply as a permanent resident once you reach the US since you will be eligible for financial aid consideration. If you apply as an international student, that would mean that you would need to apply for an F-1 visa and that is not your case. Contact the international students counselor at the university of your choice and ask her/him what would be the best route for you. They will be in a better position to point you in the right direction. Good luck!

You must take the MCAT.  Since you have a science major, you probably could get into a med school with a decent score on the MCAT.  I don't know if there are any other tests you may need to take because you are from a different country.  Start visiting college websites and contact admissions.  They will point you in the right direction.
