International Students
Students Attending Non-US based Medical Schools
Thank you for your interest in a rotation at Kaweah Delta Health Care District:
Kaweah Delta Health Care District does not accept international medical
students except those with whom we have affiliation agreements. Rare exceptions
are made, when medical students have very close ties to the Central Valley
and meet the requirements of the Medical Board of California.
For further consideration as an applicant, please foward the following
documents for review:
- USMLE Step 1- 220+
- Current CV
- Personal Statement on "why" Kaweah Delta for your rotations and
sharing your close ties to Central Valley
- Priority given to those from California, preferably Central Valley.
- Medical School Transcripts
Your letter, transcripts and board scores will be reviewed by the Office
of Graduate Medical Education Clerkship Director. You will be contacted
within several weeks of receipt of paperwork with the decision or pending items.
Please also note that if you are accepted, the clerkship fee per week is
$425.00. Please do not submit an application or elective fees at this
time. If you are approved, the Medical Student Coordinator will be in
contact with you regarding the next steps.
Please submit required paperwork (letter, transcripts and USMLE board scores)
directly to the GME office via email at
medicalstudents.gme@kdhcd.org Lindsay Christiansen, Medical Student Clerkship Coordinator.
