Nonpartisanship guides the actions of the Students Learn Students Vote Coalition. It guides how we interact with colleges, universities, faculty, administrators, students, community organizations, and local leaders. It allows us to focus on building the strongest relationships possible with community organizations and higher education institutions working to improve voter access and create opportunities for students to participate in the democratic process. Most importantly, we are nonpartisan because we believe elections should be inclusive and we envision a democracy that is truly of all people, by all people, and for all people. The SLSV Coalition does not support or oppose any political party or candidate. We encourage and urge individuals and organizations we work with to become politically active, because we do not believe that political equals partisan. The views expressed by our members are their own and do not constitute the views or position of the SLSV Coalition.
The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) creates programs that cultivate people-to-people ties among current and future global leaders, build enduring networks and personal relationships, and promote U.S. national security and values.

International medical students must be officially registered as a student at their home institution and be in their final year of medical school to be eligible to apply for participation in an Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai elective. Qualified students currently attending International Medical Schools (non-LCME-Approved Institutions) are welcome to take electives at Icahn Mount Sinai and within the Mount Sinai Health System.
The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is currently offering a maximum of two (2) 4-week elective rotations to approved IVS Program participants. All electives are scheduled by the Office of Curricular Affairs. Since Sinai medical students have priority to take electives that are open to visitors, visiting international students are only scheduled during a specified time each quarter.
All applications are reviewed on the strength of English proficiency, academic standing, and the availability of the requested elective. There are a limited number of participants that are accepted into each elective. Availability is subject to change each period based on a variety of factors, for example, the total number of available spots in the elective, number of Sinai students enrolling, number of domestic visiting students participating, and number of international student requests. In your application you should be explaining why you are interested in the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and the electives in which you are applying. Once your elective has been confirmed, please be advised that no change/date adjustment will be made.
Application Available: This date window is when the application will be open for students to apply. Students can apply for ANY quarter date during ANY window. The applications will be disabled outside of these windows.
Application Deadline: This deadline is ONLY for students who are applying for the specific quarter dates in the same row. For example, April 1, 2024 is the application deadline for Quarter 1 dates and so on.
