Radiology

Thank you for your interest in the Department of Radiology's electives. When space is available, visiting students may apply to participate in our electives (we no longer accept applications from international students). There is no remuneration for these electives and neither room nor board is provided.

The maximum amount of elective time for visiting students is 3 months/12 weeks at UCSF.

U.S. Students -- VSAS application ($200.00 per four-week elective processing fee).


UCSF only accepts applications submitted on-line through the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) Visiting Student Application Service (VSAS), www.aamc.org/programs/vsas/students/start.htm

Upload a letter of recommendation and USMLE Step 1 scores through VSAS.


Canadian Students -- UCSF application* ($200.00 per four-week elective processing fee in addition to $300.00 to Services to International Students and Scholars).

Canadian students may apply to participate in our electives by sending the following information to Melinda Parangan-Chu (please do not send any checks until you have been notified of acceptance):

*NOTE:
Due to Department of Homeland Security regulations, there will be a $300 processing fee for Canadian students covering Services to International Students and Scholars. If visa documents are delivered by courier, applicants should expect to pay $25 for this service.
