2025-2026 Rotation Calendar

Our VSLO elective catalog will open for browsing on February 24, 2025. Students can begin applying to rotations on March 10, and we will begin making rotation offers on March 31. Please note that these dates are subject to change, and all offers are contingent on policies from Northwestern University, the Feinberg School of Medicine, and our clinical affiliates at the time of the rotation and is subject to change or cancellation.

All visiting students must follow the rotation calendar below. Applications will automatically close in VSLO eight weeks (56 days) prior to the rotation start date. No further applications will be accepted after that time. Faculty members cannot override medical school policies.
