Receiving Credit for an Away Elective

Important details are here.

To summarize:

  • Complete the Application for Special Assignment Electives and send it back to the department administrator. This triggers two reviews:

    • The department: If approved, the clerkship administrator will forward your application to the Curriculum Department for their review.

    • Office of Curriculum: If approved, sends you an approval email.

  • Once you receive the approval confirmation from Curriculum submit an Add request in the eValue Manage Schedule Request tool. Ensure you attach your permission email from medevalu@uw.edu as a PDF to your Add request.

  • The departmental clerkship administrator will provide SOM Registration a blank evaluation form for your final grade. After completing your away rotation, this form must be completed by the host institution and returned to the departmental clerkship administrator directly for a grade to be recorded and for you to receive credit.
