The Application Process

 

All applications must be received through the ERAS (electronic residency application service) program. Information about this program is available at your dean’s office or through the ECFMG office.

For your application to be considered, we must have the following:
  • A completed application
  • Passport type photo
  • Dean’s letter or recommendation
  • Three letters of recommendation (at least two from clinical faculty)
  • A transcript from your medical school
  • A personal statement. This should be your own, and reflect something very personal about why you are interested in family medicine.
  • USMLE Transcript
 

 

 

Once received, your application will be reviewed, and if approved, you will receive an invitation to interview. An interview is necessary for consideration for residency in this program.
 

Applications must be received by December 31st for consideration for the NRMP match for that year.
 

This program participates in the National Residency Matching Program and follows the ethical guidelines established by the NRMP in the selection of residents.
