We accept one fellow per year. Our program participates in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP). Application to the program is made exclusively through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). Three letters of reference are required for each applicant, one of which must be from his or her current program director. Applications through ERAS will be accepted until the end of September for the subsequent academic year. Interviews are scheduled in the months of September through November.

Division faculty review all completed applications and supporting documentation. Competitive candidates are invited for an interview, at which time faculty members and subspecialty fellows evaluate candidates. Each interviewer fills out an evaluation form, which is scored based on the following areas:

• Academic credentials including performance in medical school and residency
• Letters of recommendation
• Professionalism
• Interpersonal skills
• Alignment of career plans with the goals of our program
