All partial distance students(Independent Study) must satisfy an on-campus residency requirement of a minimum of 15 weeks. This is normally accomplished by attending the regularly scheduled on-campus session each pre-clinical semester. Otherwise, the student will have to satisfy this requirement prior to being certified to take the USMLE.
