Available Electives for Medical Students

There are five AHEC elective courses available to fourth year medical students. Each elective is available every month during the academic year. Visiting medical students may enroll in these classes only if they are currently enrolled at LCME/AOA accredited medical schools. The USF College of Medicine Internet site will provide visiting students access to elective course information, required forms, and important policy and contact information. Please visit the University of South Florida College of Medicine site for the manual for electives to get necessary information prior to contacting the USF College of Medicine Registrar.
