So I know that KCUMB has sites in places all over the US that you can go to during your third and fourth years, but are there any other schools that have this option too? Thanks guys!

Hey snk🙂 KCOM has sites in Arizon, Utah, Colorado, Missouri, Minnesota, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Florida (and I may have forgotten one or two).

I think IL and IN too.
 
At NYCOM you have to do third year at NYCOM hospitals (with choice of doing all the rotations at one hospital, or doing each one at a different hospital). But fourth year is all up to you, you can go wherever you want, but you have to set up the rotations yourself through the hospitals of your choice.

do you ever have to pay out of pocket to the clinical rotation sites? does the school have to pay?

i thought for required rotations that are further away from the school, some schools give you a stipend of some sort?...anyone else heard this
 
LECOM pretty much lets you go everywhere in the country. If you want a rotation not on the affiliate hospital list then its up to you to set up the rotation and get permission from the accepting hospital to go there. Then its up to you to put in all the required paperwork, get yourself there and figure out your own housing if that rotation site doesn't have housing. I have not heard of students getting a stipend for rotations, that's what student loans and having good budgeting skills are for.
