Special Opportunity for International Medical Graduates

SUNY Upstate Medical University is partnering with the New York State Department of Health to provide new health career opportunities for International Medical Graduates.

Those who are New York state residents may be admitted into one of our College of Health Professions bachelor degree programs (listed below), which would allow re-entry to a medically-related field.

Students accepted to this program will be given a full tuition SUNY scholarship and a $10,000 yearly stipend to partially cover living expenses during their enrollment. Graduates who go on to practice in a rural community in New York State will not be required to repay any of these expenses.

The funding for this program will only be available for students entering the program in Fall 2008 and Fall 2009 and positions are limited.

Programs which may have openings for 2008 include:

• Cytotechnology
• Respiratory Therapy
• Medical Technology
• Radiation Therapy
• Medical Imaging Sciences

For More Information:

• BS degree programs open to application for 2008 can be found on Upstate's College of Health Professions home page @ http://www.upstate.edu/chp/.
