The AMA(SA) provides several annual Student Elective Grants to fifth-year University of Adelaide and third-year Flinders University medical students. To be considered, applicants must be travelling to developing countries or Aboriginal communities for their elective. Alternatively, applicants may also be undertaking electives in rural South Australia with a view to becoming a rural practitioner.

Applicants must be Australian citizens/permanent residents and current AMA(SA) members. Student Elective Grant winners are asked to write an article about their experiences on their elective, which is then published in medicSA, the AMA(SA) magazine. Applications are open from 1st July to 31st August each year. To download an application form, click here. If you have any queries, just call us on (08) 8361 0108 or email us.
