Applicant Information - Pulmonary Critical Care Fellowship

Virtual Interviews

Our Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship Program will follow the recommendations made by the Alliance for Academic Internal Medicine (AAIM) regarding interviews for the 2024-2025 recruitment season this coming summer:

"Residency [and fellowship] programs should conduct virtual interviews for all applicants, including learners at their own institution. Since safeguards cannot be guaranteed to maintain equity for applicants, AAIM recommends against in-person visits, including in-person interviews, open houses, or program-sponsored second looks."
