Green Card- Disadvantaged?

Applying to College
1

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I was just wondering if green card holders were treated the same manner as US citizens in terms of the application process. I know a few classmates from school with quite speculator stats but were rejected from certain colleges due to the fact that they were non-citizens. However, my question is, are green card holders classified in the same group as non-citizens or citizens when colleges are trying to decide whether or not to accept you?</p>

<p>Thank you for your time.</p>

<p>They are in the same group as US citizens. I have a Green Card and has not been rejected thus far.</p>

Their citizenship status wouldn't matter as long as they have permanent residency in the US.</p>
