The PS Series is designed to give medical students practical, insider perspectives on key milestones in their training. Each session features experienced peers and professionals sharing strategies, lessons learned, and actionable advice to help you navigate critical steps—from away rotations and VSLO applications to transitioning into residency. Whether you’re planning your next move or refining your long-term goals, these sessions will equip you with the tools and confidence to succeed.

Open to all medical students, this virtual event is a great opportunity to learn, network, and discuss all things EM with a specific lens from those who have been through it. 

Join us for an interactive session designed for medical students preparing for away rotations. Learn firsthand from a fourth-year medical student about strategies for navigating the Visiting Student Learning Opportunities (VSLO) system, tips for selecting rotations that align with your career goals, and practical advice to make the most of your experiences.
