<p>Sory for the ambiguous topic title, but i am a bit confused.
I lived in america all my life but moved to another country for high school. So, when I apply, am I considered a international student or a normal one?</p>
<p>If you have US citizenship or are a US Permanent resident, you’ll be considered “normal”. If not, then you’re international. Doesn’t matter where you reside.</p>
<p>If you are a US citizen or legal permanent resident, you are a domestic applicant for financial aid purposes, but your secondary school transcript might need to be read by the international admissions office because it won’t necessarily look like a US transcript. Most colleges and universities are familiar with students like you, so don’t worry about this one.</p>
<p>For recent threads started by US citizens living and studying overseas, search for:

<p>You may find useful ideas in their threads.</p>
<p>Wishing you all the best.</p>
<p>One good source of information for you is the local office of EducationUSA. Read through the website, and then make an appointment at the advising center closest to you. [EducationUSA</a> - Find an Advising Center](<a href=“http://www.educationusa.info/centers.php]EducationUSA”>http://www.educationusa.info/centers.php) If you can’t visit in person, find out if they can help you by email or over the telephone. They will be able to tell you which colleges and universities in the US have admitted students from schools like yours in recent years. If no one in that office has recent experience working with US citizens, they have colleagues in other offices who have.</p>
<p>Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I really appreciate all of your help. CC community is the best :)</p>
<p>It turns out I am a non-international student, but it may be that I’ll have my school report checked out by the international admissions office.</p>
