Even if AUA did approve this, it would be unaccredited and you would have problems when it came to licensure. The best way to make this work is to convince one of AUA's clinical sites to approve it as a "research elective" or something like that and then AUA would approve it and it would count.

Another option would be for this surgeon to get his hospital to approve it as a Surgery elective (provided that this person's hospital has an ACGME-accredited surgery program) and then you could apply to this hospital as a "away elective student" and AUA might approve that.
