Residency Selection
Application and Admission
Our program participates in the Electronic Residency Application System (ERAS) at www.aamc.org/eras and the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) at www.nrmp.org/. Application participation in these two programs is required. Only completed applications submitted through ERAS will be reviewed, and because there are a limited number of interview days, please submit your application by November 15. No paper applications will be accepted.
If you wish to apply to our program at the PGY-1 level, a completed ERAS application consists of the following:
- Common Application Form
- Photograph

- Medical Student Performance Evaluation (Dean’s Letter)
- Three Letters of Recommendation – from within the United States

Prior to beginning residency on July 1, all incoming residents must have successfully passed

In addition to the above items, International Medical Graduates are required to:
- Hold or be eligible for a J-1 Visa

There is no medical school graduation date requirement
