A visiting student may not displace a University of Florida student from any elective. For this reason, visiting students may not be accepted for an elective until mid-May.

To participate as a visiting student, you must:

• Be a fourth year student in good standing at a medical school which is accredited by the COCA or LCME and which is a member, or an affiliated member, of the Association of American Medical Colleges.
• Have the permission of your academic dean to take an extramural course outside the institution in which you are enrolled.
• All students must complete all application requirements listed on the UF College of Medicine – Jacksonville VSLO Institution Page. The home institution or visiting student must provide proof of professional liability coverage upon application submission.
