Extramural (Away) Rotations

Detailed guidance on planning and applying for Away rotations can be found on the Advanced Clinical Phase page of the Residency Application Manual.

Registration at University of Maryland School of Medicine

Extramural rotations can only be taken in the Advanced Clinical Phase and cannot be scheduled as one of the elective options during the Clerkship Phase.

Once accepted by the host institution, students must register at UMSOM before the rotation begins. If registration is not completed prior to the start of the rotation, students will NOT receive graduation credit, will NOT be covered by liability insurance, and may be subject to professional consequences.

NEW! To register specifically for Ambulatory & Global Health electives held off campus, students should complete the Off Campus Ambulatory & Global (Away) Elective Registration Form (below). Registration requires faculty approval. For your convenience, the Faculty & Department Contacts have been listed directly on the form. Students must attach a copy of the acceptance from the host institution to the Off Campus Ambulatory & Global (Away) Elective.
