Visiting Students

Visiting students from other university programs within and outside the United States must successfully complete an application process to take fourth-year clinical electives at any of UB's affiliated hospitals or institutions. The Office of Medical Education administers this program. Please note that the demand for educational experiences far exceeds our ability to accommodate them.

We have, therefore, established a policy that will keep open visiting student opportunities for domestic students, and we will continue to meet our current exchange program obligations for foreign-trained students. American citizens training abroad will be accommodated where possible, especially if there is a western New York connection. There will otherwise be a general moratorium on visiting students from foreign schools with whom we have no affiliation at this time.
