How to Apply to General Cardiology Fellowship Program
Eligibility Criteria
We thank you for your interest in applying to our fellowship program. We participate in the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP) selection process. To apply to the program, please create an Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) account and following instructions for completing your application.
We require the following supporting documents submitted via ERAS program:
- Application
- Official medical school transcripts. If original is not in English, please provide a certified English translation
- An official record of board scores (USMLE) and ECFMG certificate if you are a graduate of a foreign medical school
- Three (3) letters of recommendation, including foreign medical school
- Curriculum Vitae
- Personal Statement
While we preferentially review applications from those who signal our program, we also consider applications who do not signal use. Due to a high volume of applications, we are very unlikely to extend interview offers to applicants who do not signal our program.
Applications must possess a valid Visa of US citizenship. The program does not sponsor H1-B Visas.
