Hi-
What schools out there do international internships and how long do they usually last? What kind of experiences have you had and do you travel as a group of students?

Do you mean "externships" (aka, student rotations) or full-fledged PGY-1 internships? I dare say there are very few examples of the latter and many of the former.

I mean externships. Where does your school send students and how do they cover the students- regarding insurance?

Well, since I'm a 3rd year at your school, you know the answer already. It is possible to do a rotation at Landstuhl Medical Center in Germany through the army or airforce, but you have to do all the legwork yourself to set it up.
