Application Process
Clerkships are scheduled from July 1 through November 30.
*We require a medical student affiliation agreement with your school prior to final approval of your rotation and your application will be pending until receipt of this agreement. Due to the extended processing time of the agreement, and if we do not currently have an agreement in place with your school, we advise you to reserve
re-fundable airline tickets in the event your contract is not approved or finalized.
After you are approved to participate in our orthopaedic surgery clerkship program, you will:
- Receive an email notification confirming your requested dates of rotation
- Complete an online background clearance through our Human Resources department (required)
- Be contacted by our HR Representative with instructions to complete the process a few weeks prior to starting your scheduled rotation
- Receive a final confirmation with details and logistics of the rotation after we receive your clearance
We do our best to accommodate students with preferred dates, however our clerkship rotations are prioritized on a first come first serve basis for approved students. We do not charge a fee for this elective rotation.
We hope the clerkship fulfills your elective rotation goals while making your stay with SFORP a memorable experience.
