hi everyone,
i am a citizen of India applying for graduate study in a college in the united states. they asked me whether i was an "International citizen" or a "Non-citizen".
Well, what exactly is the difference between the two??
Thanks

I'm afraid you might need to ask them to clarify it. I was only able to find a definition of the term "international citizen" on the University of Minnesota's site, and they define it as "one who does not have United States citizenship or permanent residence or other immigrant status." (http://www.meded.umn.edu/admissions/international.cfm )
Which sounds like a non-citizen, doesn't it? :-) And there's no guarantee that the school you are applying to uses the same definition.

Ask them. I'd guess that international citizen means you are not a US citizen AND are applying from abroad, while non-citizen means you are already in the US on some other (non-student visa) authority, but are not a citizen.
That's just a guess, though.

International citizen would be like a citizen who has a dual citizen in another country while a non-citizen means an alien.
