New York University is reportedly offering early graduation for its senior medical students so that they can join New York’s fight against the ongoing pandemic.

In a March 24 email to the Class of 2020, NYU’s Grossman School of Medicine said those who wish to join the healthcare workforce could start working as paid interns as soon as April, rather than the typical July 1 starting date. The email was first obtained and reported by the medical news publication Brief19.
