Smaller class sizes allow students to build close relationships with their faculty and peers. Additionally, the favorable student-to-faculty ratio provides more opportunities for hands-on experiences.

"My third-year experience at MUSC AnMed has been an excellent one. I've really enjoyed the time spent one-on-one with attendings and the individual attention that I got from staff here. Patient continuity of care was excellent here, and we just had a really good time getting to know our attendings and other students well.

During their third year, students at the MUSC AnMed campus complete core clerkships comparable to those at the MUSC Charleston campus. Additionally, students participate in sessions for community building, workshops, skills labs, case presentations, faculty lectures, service learning activities, wellness events, and more. 

MUSC College of Medicine students at both the Charleston and AnMed campuses complete the same fourth-year requirements, as well as unique electives and opportunities for away rotations.

At MUSC AnMed, students can choose from 40 electives that are two or four weeks long, depending on preference. This allows students to experience a wider range of specialty care.
