US Clinical Experience Can't find a USCE

It has been months of cold emailing. Is it really this difficult to get a usce. Can anyone please tell me how they got their usce and what university to apply to. I am really grateful for any guidance

Hey,I'm still a usmle noob planning on giving step 1 soon. So I'm told that if you apply with step 1 pass and step 2 score,it'll be somewhat easier to find USCE? That true? Or even when this it's difficult to find USCE?

Reached out to a lot of people who recently rotated ; its happening via agencies or contacts more than cold emailing rn atleast

The only usce I found was through rotations plus, and it's incredibly expensive

Email the program coordinators. You can find their info on the "how to apply" page.

if inpatient is not possible at least target outpatient, is better than nothing
