Visa Sponsorship Information

At this time, UAMS and its ACGME-accredited residency and fellowship programs sponsor only J-1 visas for international medical graduates. This is reflective of national and institutional requirements and is not related to applicant qualifications. We welcome applications from all eligible candidates and encourage international applicants who require visa sponsorship to apply under the J-1 visa pathway. Should federal policy change, including a waiver of the $100,000 H-1B petition cost requirement for healthcare workers, our institution will re-evaluate visa sponsorship capabilities.
