Clark Scholars Program

<p>Hi,
I'm interested in the Clark Scholars Program in Texas
Does this program require US citizenship or the green card? (permenant residence)
I don't have either although I do go to school in US
Also, does this program have an age limit? Or just a grade limit? (such as only juniors and seniors can apply etc)
How competitive is it?
I'm interested in medical/ biology related research.
Would this program beneficial if I want to do research in that area?
thanks :)</p>

<p>Oh, and is the PSAT score important? I got 198 on it and I haven't taken the SAT yet, although I am taking it in March. I didn't really study for it... well, not at all. I didn't think it was important and now I'm kinda regretting it but oh well.</p>

<p>Sounds cool. I'll consider applying.</p>

<p>um... Furby, you didn't exactly answer my question.....<br>
anyone else?
bump......</p>

<p>For the green card and age questions, give them a call, they list contact people.</p>

<p>You can assume that any program that gives you room, board and a stipend is very competitive; looks like they only take 12 students each year.</p>

<p>Many of the research areas they list are medical/biology related, and even if you work in another subject area, it is good to get any kind of research experience.</p>

<p>Your PSAT will be considered along with the rest of your application, it's really impossible to say how much emphasis they will place on it.</p>

<p>yeah, I'm also applying. I think it has a stronger bio emphasis than RSI does. It's still very competitive.</p>
