SELECTIVE PROGRAM - Year III-IV CONTINUUM

Each student is required to schedule 16-weeks of selective clerkships from the approved Selective Clerkship List during the junior/senior continuum. Each student must schedule a four-week clerkship from the Selective A list and a four-week clerkship from the Selective B list. The remaining selective requirement can be met by scheduling TWO additional four-week clerkships from the Selective B list or the Selective C list. Selective clerkships are a minimum of four-weeks in length and are under the direction of full-time USC faculty members at USC affiliated hospitals. Of the 32 weeks of Selectives and Electives, a minimum of 20 weeks must be devoted to clinical rotations. Students should submit completed applications well in advance of each clerkship's start.  Applications must be received prior to the start of the clerkship in order to receive academic credit; work completed before a signed application has been received in the Office of Student Affairs will not be counted towards satisfaction of selective or elective graduation requirements.
