I've got kind of a weird situation. My girlfriend is a final year medical student in a foreign medical school (not a US citizen. She's doing medicine in her own country). As part of the curriculum, their medical school offers a 3-week leave and necessary documentation for obtaining visa for the students who can/want to go abroad and do a little bit of observing on how medical schools or hospitals are operated. They will then need to compile an official report about their experience and there will be a panel interview type of thing as well. Me being a "potential" US medical student myself, I would like for her to come here, for obvious reasons. I just wasn't sure if that's something that's doable. Are there any regulations or restrictions against foreign medical students visiting US institutions? What type of permission would they require, (assuming this is doable)? What kind of opportunities are out there? And last but certainly not least, would there be any fees associated with it (when I say fees I mean ridiculous amounts of money)! I just need a place to start to see how to go about doing this.
