Visiting Student Program

Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine welcomes visiting medical students from other LCME- or AOA-accredited U.S. medical schools to participate in clinical elective rotations. Fourth-year medical students and eligible third-year students (who have completed core clerkships) can rotate through top-rated clinical affiliates including Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab. The program offers diverse clinical experiences in Chicago's vibrant medical and cultural landscape. Applications go through the AAMC's VSLO service, which charges its own application fee.
