The Visiting Student Application Service (VSAS) is an AAMC application designed to make it easier for medical students to apply for senior electives at other U.S. medical schools.
You will use VSAS only if you are enrolled at a U.S. LCME medical school and are applying for 2009-2010 senior away electives at any of the VSAS host schools.
If you are not applying to one of these schools, please use the Extramural Electives Compendium (EEC) for visiting student application information.
You may submit applications only after a VSAS host school makes their electives available for application. The application date will vary between host schools so use your VSAS "Schools" tab (available February 2009) to research these days.
VSAS is not yet available for international and osteopathic student use. Please continue to use the Extramural Electives Compendium (EEC) for visiting student application information.

School Users: Your medical school must create a user account for you before you can log in to VSAS. If you have not received an email with log in instructions, please contact your medical school's primary contact with your request.
