abroad experience

[saiyagirl]

hey everyone,

I am in the midst of planning my fourth year schedule, and it looks like I'll have April free (so far). I'd love to do something abroad (this has been a lifelong goal of mine...to get out of America for a little bit..first time I might actually have enough funds to do this).

Anyone know of some solid electives/experiences abroad for medical students? It would be awesome if this were ophtho related, but it doesn't have to be. I'm not sure where to begin looking.

Thanks!

Hi Saiyagirl,

You should check out Unite For Sight: http://www.uniteforsight.org/intl_volunteer/

Next April there are programs in Ghana and India. You can PM me if you'd like to know more.

SEE(Surgical Eye Expeditions) International is another site to check out...
Also, if you check out some of the past post's on international experience there are at least one or two other organizations that I can't recall right off.
Good luck, and anywhere you go will be a GREAT experience!
