GHLO - Ain Shams Medschool Collaboration
* What's 'GHLO':
The GHLO (Global Health Learning Opportunities) Collaborative facilitates global mobility for final year students pursuing clinical, research, or public health electives outside their home country. The GHLO application service utilizes a Web-based platform that streamlines the application process for students, enables home schools to endorse student applications and track progress, and host institutions to publish and manage elective offerings, student selection and evaluation.
Ain Shams University is participating in this Collaboration as a 'Home Institution' and not a 'Host Institution'. This means its' students can apply for electives at other universities, but it will not be accepting any visiting students for electives.
The Collaborative Agreement is effective from April 2014 to March 2015 [Agreement Renewed annually].

- During your application for an elective at a university, you may be required to upload a Letter of Recommendation. In some cases, the university you are applying to requires your 'Home Administrator' to upload a Letter of Recommendation for you. If that case, please send an email to ( ainshamsghlo@gmail.com ) containing your first name, last name, year, university you are applying to, and attach a copy of the Letter of Recommendation you wish to be uploaded. Make the email subject 'LOR'.
- Once you have completed an application, it will not be visible to the university you have applied to. To be visible to the university you have applied to, the 'Home Administrator' must verify and release your application.
3- Once you have completed your application, in order for your application to be released by the ‘Home Administrator’, you MUST attend an ‘Elective Training Session’.
The Elective Training Session will be carried out once every 2 weeks (you may attend any one) and will include:
- Training on communication and presentation skills.
- Training on your roles and responsibilities as a medical student during an elective, and how to make your elective experience a beneficial and successful one.
- An interactive workshop, during which you will be evaluated on your presentability and communication. The evaluation will be done by faculty staff and will aim to ensure that you will be a good representative of Ain Shams University during your elective. If you are found to be satisfactory during your evaluation, the ‘Home Administrator’ will release your application. If you are found to be unsatisfactory during your evaluation, you will be told your areas of weakness and you will have to work on improving them and attend the next Elective Training Session and be re-evaluated.
The specific dates of the Elective Training Sessions will be mentioned soon.
Please note the following:
- Releasing an application does not guarantee acceptance. The university you have applied to is free to either accept or reject your application.
* Important note :
At this moment, Ain Shams - GHLO Collaboration is an official affiliation at the Faculty of Medicine Ain Shams University. This means that for internship students, generally, the electives you do through GHLO should be counted towards your internship . However, there are two very important questions that we do not know the answers to at this moment, but we will try to find out and clarify them for you in the near future :
1. How many months of electives can you do and be counted towards your internship year ?
2. If for example you are travelling during your '2 months of Surgery' in internship year, do the electives you are going to do have to be Surgery electives in order to be counted towards your internship year?
