Application form for IFMSA Clinical Exchange placement 2019-20
Who is it for?
Medical Students from any Medical School in the UK who have finished their clinical studies in the department they wish to apply for an exchange in. You can find out about the detailed requirements for each country by reading the Exchange Conditions page for the country here: http://exchange.ifmsa.org/exchange/scope/explore/exchange-conditions 

When can you go?
The Exchange season runs from March 2020 till March 2021 so technically you can go anytime in between however, most countries only accept students in specific months or have early deadlines for Application submission etc. Check the Exchange Conditions page of your desired country for more detail.

How much will it cost?
It varies from country to country but expect to pay 300 - 500 Euros. You will be asked to pay a 30% deposit upon your selection and then the full payment once you've received your country allocation- around 21/10/19.

What’s included?
Accommodation for the entire duration of the placement.
At least 1 meal per weekday or equivalent pocket money.
Possibly a Social Program (with other exchange students)
Allocated clinical supervisor
Academic Handbook
Certificate on successful completion of placement

What happens if I am selected?
You will be given a username and password for the IFMSA exchange database where you can fill in the Application Form to list the cities/departments you would prefer to go to, and upload your documents (CV, motivation letter etc). The deadline for this is 10/11/19.
You're strongly encouraged to look at the documents requested for the Card of Documents (CoD) of your desired countries, as many are common to most countries and could take a while to obtain.
