We welcome requests from U.S. medical school students for fourth-year clinical electives at any of the hospitals or institutions affiliated with the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.
For the 2022-2023 academic year, our catalog is viewable on VSLO|VSAS in February and accepting applications in March.
Visiting students attending US LCME accredited medical schools are required to use the AAMC Visiting Student Application Service (VSAS) to apply in order to take fourth year clinical electives at any of the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences school’s affiliated hospitals or institutions.
The tremendous demand for educational experiences by students’ trained elsewhere, especially internationally-trained students far exceeds our ability to accommodate them. Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences therefore, established a policy that will keep open visiting student opportunities for medical students attending a domestic medical institution only.
Our academic calendar is divided into 13 four-week modules across the year.
Our Office of Student and Academic Affairs administers this program. Questions should be directed to:
