Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell Program
About This Program
All visas will be subject to government policies and restrictions. Important Note: Northwell Health does not assume responsibility for payment of the $100,000 filing fee associated with H-1B petitions. If it is deemed that the $100,000 fee applies, under these circumstances, Northwell will not sponsor an H-1B visa, and programs are, therefore, encouraged to consult with OAA to determine whether alternative visa pathways (e.g., J-1 or O-1) may be more appropriate.
