UMPI Collecting credits before applying?

The realistic pre-medical student also has to be ready to make several intercity moves, with limited choice in what city will have a spot for them each time. And for Canadian applicants, these are often international moves.

• Moving to a med school that admits you for the two preclinical years.
  
• Often, moving for the start of year 3 because clinical rotations are in a different city not commutable from the med school city.
  
• Sometimes, moving additional times within years 3 and 4 because clinical rotations are all over the map.
  
• Moving to a postgraduate training site that admits you.
  
• Often, moving one or more times during postgraduate training (e.g., preliminary internship in city A, complete residency in city B, complete subspecialty fellowship in city C).
