I'm an international student and interested in applying to Sackler, Technion and BGU. The Sackler and Technion's websites seem to say only open to US and Canadian citizens but not the GBU. Does anyone have any information on these?
I have emailed them but their responses are either slow or they always misinterpret my questions. Any info will be appreciated!

Thanks,
Nova

If you are an Israeli citizen you apply to the Israeli division of those schools. For the "American Program" at each school you will need to have graduated from a undergraduate university in either the United States or Canada and have all the requirements complete (MCAT, premed classes, etc.). So, these are only international programs for students from the United States and Canada.

As for Sackler you have to be either an American or Canadian citizen. You don't have to have gone to an American/Canadian university but your undergrad school has to recognized by that University (That is something you have to as them directly). Of course you have to complete MCAT and all pre-requisites. Israeli citizens have no privileges in terms of acceptance.
BGU- accepts international students- as a matter of fact the program is for international students and deals in large part with international health.
As for the technion- I imagine it's a lot like sackler.
Where r u from Nova??

Hi ijcMD and student 2. Thank you for the replies. I'm indonesian. I got my ** from University of Washington. I really want to apply to US schools but so far it does not look good for non green card holders like me. I have to apply to private schools like Harvard, John Hopkins, Yale, Stanford etc (less than 10 schools in the whole US) that treat international students equally. I have not taken the MCAT yet and will do so early next year.

I was told to be realisitic in applying because of my non-citizenship. I have heard of Caribbean schools. Can you tell me which one is better? I know the caribbean's curriculum is tailored to the US and spent 1 year residency in the US which can be an advantage to the Israel schools.
Question for student 2:
1. Are you a student in one of the Israel medical schools right now?
I think you are right, from the website it seems both Technion and Sackler are only open to US and Canadian citizens. That only leaves me one option to apply to BGU. sigh...this is hard than it already is. I'll still wait for their reponses. Thanks pp! Feel free to respond.
