Harvard/Yale Med School Admission chances for someone who attended the University of Cambridge

[cnfsedcollege1]

<p>Would it be significantly difficult for someone who attended the University of Cambridge to get accepted to a prestigious American Medical School such as Harvard or Yale? Also, the student is an American citizen and attended K-12 in the States. Would they get categorized as an international student, as well? Thanks.</p>

<p>I don’t believe it is difficult to get admitted to Harvard or Yale from Cambridge if you are one of the top students from there but it would be difficult to apply to most other schools in US which require an American degree in order to apply to medical schools.</p>

<p>Actually having a degree from outside the US will disadvantage you for admission to Harvard Med. Here’s what HMS" website says:</p>

<p>

**My undergrad degree is from an institution outside of the United States and Canada. Can I still apply to HMS? **
A limited number of required courses taken outside the U.S. or Canada may be used to fulfill requirements, to be determined on a case-by-case basis. Every effort should be made to take the majority of required courses at an accredited college or university in the U.S. or Canada. In any case, at least one year of full-time academic work in the U.S. or Canada is required.

<p>Yale will accept UK degrees. UVA and georgetown will also consider UK degrees on a case-by-case basis.</p>

Is there a listing somewhere for Harvard of which undergrad programs their entering class was accepted from?
Or for any/ all the med schools? I think that would be interesting to look at.

Some schools post an incoming class profile which may or may not list the undergrads where matriculants are from.

Try searching “incoming class profile year 20XX” on various med school admission websites.

You can also try to find their commencement programs. Normally graduates have their UG Noted in the listing.

Is this person someone thinking of going to Cambridge or someone who is already attending or who has already graduated? What subject(s) if already attending/graduated?
