H-1B and College/BSMD Admissions

September 26, 2025 ~ drpaulloweadmissionsexpert

H1-B visa programs is one of the several immigration programs for workers with specialized skills.

A person can stay in the United States for a maximum of six years under this visa, which has often been a pathway to a green card. Children of parents who have been granted H-1B status have H-4 visas.

Companies that want to hire employees from certain countries using H1-B visa program now have to pay $100,000

The new fee now introduces a degree of uncertainty, chaos and confusion around the H1-B program.

As an admissions expert, with 29 years’ experience, Dr. Lowe understands the nuances and changes in the college admissions process, specifically with students who wish to attend highly competitive BS/MD programs that accept H-4 visa students.

Continual changes in U.S immigration policy have always had a direct effect on H-4 visa students who are applying to BS/MD programs, for example, delays in the issuance of Green Cards (also called Permanent Resident Cards). If their parents’ Green Cards do not come through before they turn 21, they “age out.” These students then have to switch to student or work visas to remain in the U.S. or face deportation. Delays in visa status can result in clouds of uncertainty.

Dr. Lowe works with many students whose parents are H-1B professionals. They are highly skilled and come to the US mainly on the H-1B work visas.

Dr. Lowe has worked with students who, because of delays in their parents’ permanent legal residency, had to indicate that they were non-permanent residents/non-citizen students on their college applications, therefore limiting the number of BS/MD schools to which they could apply. Fortunately, over the years, with Dr. Lowe’s help, many were admitted to several BS/MD programs, including but not limited to: Brown University Program in Liberal Medical Education (PLME).

Dr. Lowe and his team work with H4 visa students and from time to time will consult with immigration attorneys regarding their client’s immigration status and its relationship to their admissions process. As a result, Dr. Lowe has been quite successful in placing H4 visa students into BS/MD programs.

Many H-1B parents call merely to garner information, thinking that they can navigate the BS/MD process on their own. They initially do not believe in hiring an advisor who specializes in direct BS/MD admissions and placing students into top programs that accept H-4 students.

Unfortunately, these parents discover later, because of their unreliable assumptions, miscalculations and mistakes, that their (children) H-4 students are denied acceptance to BS/MD programs. Some, because of their mistakes, deign to attend second or third tier colleges, or obtain multiple advance degrees, as their dream of becoming a U.S. medical doctor fades away.

“As an admissions expert, I am always cognizant of the unforeseen circumstances and unfavorable consequences that may adversely affect my clients’ positive outcomes. Because of our vigilance and comprehensive strategies, my clients are ACCEPTED into BS/MD programs as well as Ivy League and competitive colleges and universities with superior pre-med programs.” – Dr. Paul Lowe

For parents of my clients who immigrated to the US, higher education is a symbol of upward mobility, a life-altering path to meaningful careers and financial stability. A medical degree, specifically one obtained through a direct BS/MD program, is a definitive path to becoming a medical doctor.

“The future depends on what you do today.” – Mahatma Gandhi

For many of my client-families, education is an important means to achieve the four aims of human life, namely dharma (virtue), artha (wealth), kama (pleasure) and moksha (liberation). Vidya or education is the means by which an individual can gain the right knowledge, control his desires and learn to perform his obligatory duties.

Dr. Paul Lowe and his team of admissions experts help many of his clients successfully attain this career track while in high school through BS/MD Admissions Advisors. This is one of the reasons why he has been in practice for 28 years with unmatched results!

For H-4 high school students, this means that they will be U.S. medical doctors – an immigration benefit, in addition to the job security.
