Getting in

How it chooses

  • Because applications are high in number, applicants who do not signal their interest are highly unlikely to get an interview.
  • Applicants apply through ERAS and are matched through the NRMP. They must have completed an ACGME internal medicine residency, be board eligible or board certified, and send three letters of reference, one from an internal medicine program director.
