Application Information

Our program participates in the National Residency Matching Program and only accepts applications through the Electronic Residency Applications Service (ERAS). Our deadline for this upcoming season is November 10, 2024.

Documents needed for a complete application file include:

  • ERAS Common Application Form
  • Medical school dean’s letter
  • Medical school transcript
  • Three letters of reference. At least one must be a SLOE from an emergency medicine physician, and we encourage you to submit a SLOE from each of your EM rotations.
  • Personal statement
  • USMLE or COMLEX Transcripts
    • We will consider your application with the USMLE/COMLEX Part 1 however, prior to starting your internship you must have passed Part 1, Part 2 CK, and Part 2 CS.

Once the complete application is received, the residency directors will review it and interviews will be granted by invitation. These interviews will occur from November 12, 2024, through December 17,2024. All interviews will be conducted virtually.

We are offering a second look event to allow applicants more opportunity to get to know our program and make the most informed decision about the location of your future residency training. We believe that the decision and ability to attend a second look event should not impact your position on our rank list. In support of this, we will submit our rank list ahead of any second look events. Attendance at our second look event will have no impact on your position on our rank list, except for egregious lapses in professionalism, as defined in the AAMC Core Entrustable Professional Activities for Entering Residency, which may negatively impact your rank list position at the discretion of the program director.

Planned optional Second Look Events are anticipated to be held on February 8, 2025, and February 15, 2025.  In accordance with CORD recommendations, our rank list meeting and projected rank list certification date is February 5, 2025, prior to the start of the second look events.  Details about these events will be sent at the conclusion of the interview season.
