Applicants for our Orthopaedic Surgery Residency Program must participate in the National
Residency Matching Program. We also participate in AAMC's Electronic Residency Application
Service, called ERAS, to accept and process residency applications. ERAS is a computerized
application service which is available to all medical students attending accredited
schools in the United States and foreign medical graduates via the Educational Commission
for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG). Medical students interested in applying to
our program can request information and brochures from us, but applications and supporting
documentation must be submitted directly from the medical schools via the Internet.
Someone in your medical school's Dean's Office should be able to counsel you regarding
this procedure. Each year we seek three PGY-1 level positions in the Orthopaedic Surgery
Program. The NRMP Program Code for these Categorical positions is #1689260C0. Our Program ID # for ERAS is #260-47-11-164.
