Application Requirements

We participate in the National Residency Match Program and in the ERAS application system. Only applications submitted through ERAS will be reviewed.
Our deadline is November 1. All materials should be submitted to ERAS by this date of the year prior to which for you are matching.
We require a dean's letter from your medical school. We also require three (3) letters of recommendation, one (1) of which must be from a pediatric faculty member. We require a medical school transcript, a CV and a personal statement. We also require that you have the USMLE Step 1 score prior to your match application. We do not have a minimum USMLE score cutoff or requirement. A photograph is requested but not required.
