Pediatric Endocrinology Fellowship Admissions

Our three-year fellowship program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and provides comprehensive clinical and research experience in Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes. With up to four fellows per year, our program is one of the largest pediatric endocrinology fellowships in the United States.

Admission requirements include completion of an ACGME-accredited U.S. Pediatric Residency Program prior to matriculation at Baylor College of Medicine for the Pediatric Endocrinology Fellowship. Baylor College of Medicine accepts trainees who are U.S. citizens, permanent residents or holders of J-1Visas.

Applications are accepted through ERAS. We participate in the Fall Subspecialty Match held in December of the year prior to entry into our program in July.
