Application Procedures
We are exclusively utilizing ERAS®
(Electronic Residency Application Service http://www.aamc.org/eras.htm)
for the upcoming application process. Please contact your medical school
of graduation for ERAS® information and packet application. If you are
an international medical graduate, please contact your local Educational
Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) office for more information
on ERAS®. Paper applications will not be accepted.
A preliminary review of each application will be made upon receipt of a
complete application and will be on a first-come, first-served basis. The
Dean’s letter is not required for initial review. Applications should
consist of all ERAS® materials and should include medical school transcripts,
USMLE score - Part 1, and personal statement. Letters of recommendation
from three board-certified U.S. surgeons who are familiar with your work
are required.
Our application deadline is September 30, 2007. After the Selection Committee
has reviewed your completed file, and if you are offered an interview, you
will be contacted by e-mail or telephone to select a date for your interview.
Please be sure to include your e-mail address and telephone number as part
of your ERAS® application.
Our interview dates are: Saturday, October 27, 2007; Saturday, November
3, 2007; and Saturday, December 8, 2007.
Each interview date begins with
a Friday evening reception. This is an opportunity for the applicants to
meet the residents and faculty informally. The interviews are held on Saturday
morning. Dr. Gerald L. Andriole (chief of the Division of Urologic Surgery)
and Dr. Steven B. Brandes (program director), will present an overview of
the training program. Afterward, applicants will have several interviews
over a 2 1/2-hour period.
At the conclusion of the interviews,
applicants will be taken on a tour of the facilities including the hospitals
and research buildings. A leisurely luncheon for the applicants and residents
will follow the tour. The day concludes at approximately 1 p.m.
If you have any questions, please
