  1. Three letters of recommendation
  2. Medical school transcript

The application deadline is October 1, 2021. Only completed ERAS applications submitted by this date will be considered.

Invitations to interview with available dates will be extended by our program coordinator and are scheduled on a first come, first serve basis. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all interviews will be conducted virtually on the Zoom platform this year. The interview day schedule will include presentations by the Department Chair, Residency Program Director, and the Administrative Chief Residents. Applicants will also interview with the Residency Program Director, our two Associate Program Directors, two faculty members, and two residents.

Applicants are also strongly encouraged to participate in our virtual hangout with the current residents the evening before the interview. The virtual hangout provides an excellent opportunity to get to know our residents in a more relaxed setting.
