i'm curious, how do the AUC clinical rotations work? specifically, i see that they offer clinical rotation sites in the US or in the UK/Ireland. do all 3rd and 4th year US citizens get US rotation sites automatically? is this guaranteed? also, how does their scheduling work? i've talked to several ross students and they seem to have to move around a lot, from miami to DC to chicago to NJ back to DC etc to get all their rotations done. is AUC's scheduling like this also? do they have sites where people can stay for an extended period of time and complete several rotations? i'd appreciate any input.

No. As I understand it, numerous factors are considered for clinical placement, including Step I scores and class ranking.

is this guaranteed?

Currently there are no guarantees.

also, how does their scheduling work?

Clinical rotations are assigned according to various geographic regions. Once you are assigned to a region, you should be able to complete all of your cores there. Not all hospitals allow you to do all of your cores in one place, so the potential to move around hospitals within your assigned region exists.

See above.
