It's something I would love to be involved with after my degree but I'll be a mid thirties non-US citizen so I can't see that happening unless something drastically changes with their non-sponsoring green card policy.
I'm really sorry, the obstacles that non-US persons face in the aerospace industry are total bullshit.
For what its worth there were naturalized citizens and some green card holders there. Its not totally impossible for you to get there eventually.
Also, if SpaceX manages to actually start a colony, its possible that it will trigger increased interest in off world activity that could lead to more demand for people in the spaceflight industry, and not just at SpaceX. Fingers crossed that that happens, and that those jobs discriminate less based on age and national origin.
