PROGRAM INFORMATION:
We review approximately 400 applications a year, interview about forty candidates and accept 6 or 7. NOTE: For the 2009 application process, we will be using the Electronic Residency Application System (ERAS). You can access the site at the following link: http://www.aamc.org/programs/eras/programs/start.htm. They have instructions there on what you need to do to get started as an applicant. Applicants can now access the system to begin working on their application. We will need a Personal Statement as well as 3 letters of recommendation (one of which must be from your Program Director) among the information we download/receive.
We will stop taking new applications February 24, 2008; though we will still accept supporting documentation after that time for those people who have already applied. We will hold our interviews from March 2008 through May 2008. ERAS currently lists the match as taking place in June.
