We are active participants in the Electronic Residency Application Service from the Association of American Medical Colleges, the Canadian Resident Matching Service (CaRMs), and the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG). We will accept applications by electronic filing only. You may obtain detailed information on how to apply by contacting your Dean's Office or the ECFMG or by visiting the AAMC-ERAS Website. When completing your application, please be sure to request electronic transmission of your licensure test scores. Additionally, please be sure to update your electronic application with any changes of address, telephone number, or other important changes or honors received.

Because of the large number of applications we receive, it is necessary that interviews are by invitation only.

Requirements for application are as follows:

1. USMLE Step I results
2. USMLE Step II results will be required by Rank Day (February 2009) so take the exam earlier rather than later.
   There is no minimum score, however it is competitive so a better score will be more advantageous
   (International Medical Graduates will require Steps I, II and III for H1-B1 Visa sponsorship.)
3. Three letters of recommendation, one of which must be from a member of your Medical School's Ob-Gyn department.
4. Medical School Transcript
5. Dean's Letter
