Admissions

Our eight positions are filled through the National Residency Matching Program. Applicants to our program must be registered through the NRMP and are required to use the Electronic Residency Application Service. We will not process paper applications. For ERAS application materials, contact the Student Affairs or Dean’s office of your medical school. We request that the following letters of recommendation be submitted with your application.

• Letter from the chair of the Department of Medicine, or designee 
• Letter from the chair of the Department of Pediatrics, or designee 
• Two letters of recommendation from faculty of applicant’s choosing

International medical graduates can contact the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates for their application materials and eligibility requirements.

Interview days are scheduled on Wednesdays between November and January, with certain weeks excluded from the schedule. Applicant dinners are held each Tuesday evening prior to interview days at a resident’s home. Each applicant will also be offered the opportunity to shadow a resident one-on-one during the afternoon on that Tuesday.

You can expect your interview day to begin around 7 am and end around 4 pm on Wednesday. During the day you will have the opportunity to visit several of our hospitals as well as our med-peds continuity clinic.
