Radiology Residency Application Information

General Requirements

Applications are accepted after September 3rd for both residency programs. Residency Programs are able to begin review of application material September 24th. All application materials should be received by October 10th; 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.
