How does college and medical school work in England..

How does college and medical school work in England...?
I heard that they are both put together... Can an American high school senior get into one? Can they use scholarships or grants or anything? Is it harder for Americans? Is there an easier way?

I'm not sure if they combine them or not, but I do know if you go to med school overseas you will have to pass the exam here regardless. Yes, you can get into school in england out of high school, but it will be tough and a little expensive. You can use Stafford loans and scholarships if they have no stipulations on where the school is, but no grants. Keep in mind though, their standards can be a little higher and you have to have a certain GPA for most schools. There are several US scholarships if your grades are good enough such as the Fulbright award, you just have to do some research into those. It's not harder for Americans, the most annoying part is the passport and visa process. You could get school paid for and everything just to be denied a visa if they feel you don't have sufficent funding. Plan FAR ahead if you decide to go this route. I've been preparing to leave for grad school in London for 10 months now and it hasn't got easier and I wish I would have started earlier! Easier way? You could always do study abroad through a US college.

If you don't have a EU passport you need a work permit. I couldn't work when I went to Japan for vacation cuz I wasn't a citizen. But since I'm no expert: http://www.transitionsabroad.com/publications/magazine/0501/working_in_the_uk.shtml

I can't answer the question for Canada and other countries of the Commonwealth. There may be treaties involving that of which I am not aware. In the US, the privilege of practicing law is governed by each individual state. Each state's highest court (usually called a Supreme Court) sets the qualifications for practice. The standards vary somewhat, but usually require graduation from a law school approved by the American Bar Association. Most states make some provision for admission to practice for an attorney trained in a common-law country, (such as England). The legal system in the US is similar, but it has diverged quite a bit from its English parent. If interested in practicing in the US, you should contact the bar association of the state in which you would be living and look at the qualifications for application for admission.
