Our program participates in the NRMP Subspecialty Matching Service, as part of the Pediatric Specialties Fall Match (PSFM). Please visit the NRMP PSFM website for information about current fellowship application and match dates. Because fellowship funding is primarily derived from federal training grants, we preferentially consider applications from U.S. citizens or green card holders. Foreign medical graduates who have an ECFMG certificate may also apply.
Application materials needed:
- Completed application on ERAS
- Résumé/Curriculum Vitae
- Personal Statement
- Four letters of recommendation including:
- Medical School Dean’s letter (same as required for residency)
- Pediatric Residency Director
- Two additional faculty (or other appropriate individuals of your choice)
- USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 Examination Scores
- Copy of ECFMG Certificate (applies to international medical graduates only)
- Passport-style photograph (optional)
