clerkship, elective and sub-i scheduling and info

A key deadline for planning is September of the final year of the program, when residency applications are submitted.
By this date, students will typically have completed:

• All of their remaining clerkships
• 2-6 elective months
• 1 month sub-internship
• And possibly Step 2 CK

Typical timing / process for scheduling

• In consultation with the student and Maggie, the Registrar's Office creates grids in OASIS for core clerkships.
• Sub-I scheduling is typically in October for the following calendar year (eg 2024 for all sub-Is in 2025); Please follow up with the Registrar’s Office regarding the add/drop policy for each core sub-I.
• Elective scheduling is usually done in three batches (late November for Jan-April; February for May-September; June for October-December).
