Tips to Reduce Costs

  • Look for programs that offer housing assistance or stipends
  • Consider cities with lower cost of living like Cleveland, Pittsburgh, or Detroit
  • Share accommodation with other IMGs doing rotations in the same city
  • Apply for free programs first — many hospital-based observerships have no fee
  • Use public transportation and cook your own meals to save on daily expenses
