Vacation Elective

Residents have the option of taking all of their 4 weeks of available vacation in a given year all at once in a vacation elective. The timing of this elective may be restricted due to availability of other clinical rotations at certain times of the year.

Please note that a vacation elective does not change the end date of a residency, i.e., If your residency end-date is June 30, 2012, you won't make that end-date May 31, 2012 by taking a vacation elective in the month of June.

Residents are allowed to take all their vacation at the same time. To facilitate this, we have developed a vacation elective, where a resident can take all of their 4 weeks of vacation at once.

If a resident chooses this option, he/she will not be able to take vacation during any other time in the academic year. However, he/she will still be able to take educational days throughout the rest of the year.
