International Visiting Student Fees

For electives taking place AFTER July 1, 2024

Students from Foreign/Non-Affiliated Medical Schools - The University of Utah School of Medicine does not accept students who are attending a medical school outside of the United States with whom we do not have a current affiliation agreement.

Under certain circumstances the University of Utah School of Medicine allows clinical rotations, research or observational activities to international students, trainees and faculty from non-LCME (Liaison Committee on Medical Education) and non-AOA (American Osteopathic Association's Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation) institutions. To be eligible applicants must:

• Submit the Department Sponsored Rotation Application to the Global Heath Education unit (email: april.dansie@hsc.utah.edu) at least 8-10 weeks prior to the desired arrival time
• Provide record of good academic standing at their home institution (e.g., formal letter from Dean or faculty member)
• Show proof of appropriate professional liability (if needed) & health insurance coverage prior to starting the elective
• Comply with required health policies (e.g., immunizations)
