Applications are accepted after September 4th for both residency programs. Residency
Programs are able to begin review of application material September 25th. All application
materials should be received by October 11; materials received after that date may
not be considered. Our receipt of the medical school transcript and all other application
materials, with the exception of the Dean's letter, by October 1 may facilitate early
screening of your application for interview. We also ask that applicants consider adding a paragraph to the end of their personal
statement detailing their interest in our specific program - this is not mandatory,
but may assist us in gauging applicant interest if the pool is large.
A personal interview is required and is granted at the discretion of the Program Director
and/or Resident Selection Committee. Applicants for a PGY-2 position will be considered
for interview after a completed application is received. If an interview is to be
offered, the applicant will be contacted by the Residency Program Director's office.
ONLY ELECTRONIC APPLICATIONS VIA ERAS®Electronic Residency Application Service ARE ACCEPTED FOR RADIOLOGY RESIDENCY POSITIONS. We DO NOT accept any applications
that are emailed, mailed, or faxed. Our program does not offer any pre-match positions.
