Application Instructions

Only students who are in good standing and have not yet received their M.D. or D.O. degree are eligible to apply. Applicants who attend schools in the United States, Canada or Puerto Rico must fill out the Visiting Student Application. All other students attending other schools must complete the Foreign Visiting Student Application.

Positive titer serology for Measles, Rubella and Hepatitis B are required from foreign students. We will accept MMRs and a 3-dose series for Hepatitis B from visiting students.

Visiting students apply directly to the division where they wish to do the elective. It is advised that the student call to determine availability and obtain the internal box number of the division so that the application will be routed to the appropriate location.

Foreign visiting students do not call the divisions directly. They must submit all documents to the address on top of the first page of Foreign Visiting Student Application for processing. Apply to the New York State Department of Education for an Eligibility Letter after you have been accepted by Mount Sinai.

We hope to see you soon at Mount Sinai.
