Under the supervision of GW faculty and senior house staff, visiting students share many of responsibilities of orthopedic residents. Students observe and participate in a variety of patient encounters - in the emergency room, the operating room, the wards, and the outpatient clinic. Students are also asked to deliver at least one brief presentation on a relevant orthopedic topic.
Please see the School of Medicine and Health Sciences page for visiting students for information about applying through the Visiting Student Application Service.
In addition to the VSLO application requirements, please include the following in your application package:
- CV
- Grades for all completed MS-3 clerkships
- A brief written statement regarding your specific interest in our program and in doing a rotation with us.
Applications are reviewed starting in April of each year, with rolling acceptances offered for available positions. Please note that earlier applications are given priority as our limited positions can fill quickly, especially for earlier months in the applications cycle.
