The 20-year-old has not played for the Burnley first team yet but is hoping to impress during his loan spell.
"I'm relishing the opportunity to play for Accrington, I can't wait to get a few games in, hopefully get some goals and get some points on the board," he told Sky Sports News.
Gilchrist could make his debut for Accrington in tomorrow's League Two match against Portsmouth.
