Electives Catalog

Osteopathic Medicine in Downers Grove

As of the Fall Quarter 2006, there are no elective credits required for promotion to MS-III clinical year.

MS-I students may take electives in the spring quarter.
MS-II students may take electives during fall, winter, and spring quarters.

Prior to the beginning of each quarter, elective information is updated and available online. Students may visit the electives webpage for detailed course information. The Elective Request Form may be filled out and submitted to the course director during the Registration Period to request MSI/MSII elective coursework. Assigning elective choices is on a first-come, first-served basis for MS-II, so it is imperative that you submit your registration form.

Students may NOT add or drop an elective after the second class session without the instructor's approval. Add/drop forms are also available in the Registrar's office.

NOTE: MWU-CCOM reserves the right to cancel any elective in which enrollment does not meet the minimum number of students required.
