Hey Guys,

I am a Canadian student who is applying to American universities this year. I applied across Canada last year and nearly got an interview and University of British Columbia and received one at University of Alberta, however I didn't make it in. This year I am giving American universities a shot, but I am not sure which ones are more open to Canadian/out of state applicants. I have a cGPA of 3.7 and a MCAT score of 31 O (yeah I kind of sucked at the writing). Also, I am involved in a lot of student body type things as well as volunteering with various organizations (Hospital, Alberta Diabetes Foundation, worked with an Autistic child etc.). This year I am also doing Shinerama, which is a huge fundraiser for cystic fibrosis. What are my chances of getting into a state school taking this into consideration!?

Thanks!!!
