While applicants to medical school in many nations target programs close to home, others seek exposure through environments where they will expand their understanding of medicine globally while interacting with representatives and peers from diverse backgrounds. Those who desire to practice in the U.S. may consider alternatives to studying in the U.S. as several med schools abroad provide viable pathways to prepare for licensure in the nation where they study, their home countries, and the U.S. Through a case study exchange, participants will engage collaboratively to identify a program list meeting the needs of hypothetical students and defend their choices based on applicant objectives for professional practice.
