This is not a copy paste from other forums. I updated most of the links and guidelines.Thank you! But the list is outdated & most, if not all, guidelines changed...
I think its age is 2-3 years ago...EEC is outdated
If you have more updated info please post it and the staff told me that they'll edit the post accordingly.
Update
Tuition for Harvard increased to 3700 $/4 weeks elective.
But thanks so much for this awesome list :happy:

can anyone tell what's the best time to apply for clinical electives? Is it when all the steps( step 1, step 2ck and step 2 cs) are taken? or one can apply when any one the steps(either step 1 or step 2 ck) are taken....and is there any hard and fast rule for visa status....
Best time
You have to apply as long as you're still a medstudent...and many of them require you to be in the last year(ie 6th year in a 6 year programme,or internship year in some countries).Make sure you have your step 1 and TOEFL ready.

thanks...but what about for an IMG....is clinical clerkship is necessary for an IMG, too? I'm asking because I am an IMG and I am already a doctor back in my country with an experience of one year of internship prog. Can I use those certificates to apply for it? I'm sorry, if I'm bothering you but I have a very little idea about this thing....
Not clerkship,externship
Now I also only started my quest so this is from the info I have...as far as I know after you finish medical school your are no longer eligible for clerkships, only paid externships (hands on) and observships. The list here is only for clerkships. Usually a different department deals with graduates for those two. You have to look threads in the forum about those, there are quite a few useful links for this.
Hope this helps.
