Each year is divided into thirteen four-week blocks to maximize the clinical experiences and available elective time.
Residents have two two-week blocks of vacation each year plus five days off during the December holiday season. First year residents also have one-week of vacation at the end of their internship year.
Each year, one elective block is free from call responsibilities; in addition, one to six blocks of electives include only Jeopardy call – sick call with no scheduled in-house call.
