Applying for US citizenship?

I'm planning to apply for US citizenship but been away for four years (with re-entry permits of course) because I was studying abroad. I've been a LPR for 3 years beforehand. Do you think I'd still get rejected even if the reason for travel is education? Thanks!

Yes, you'll probably be told that you have to wait a longer period of time before you can apply. You need to have physically been in this country for several consecutive years to qualify for citizenship. Check with USCIS. A friend of mine who'd lived here with a green card for 12 years without applying for naturalization lost his job and started teaching overseas for a couple of years. He was told he'd have to stay in the U.S. for 2 1/2 more years before he could apply for naturalization.

It is likely that you are not eligible to apply for naturalization until
meeting certain residence requirements. You should review the
regulations on eligibility (8CFR 316) which can be found at uscis.gov.

Yes. You need to have been in the US for longer.
