Students and visiting learners

We are proud to be affiliated with Georgetown University, George Washington University, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Johns Hopkins University, Penn State, Drexel University, University of Maryland, and Virginia Commonwealth University for their third- and fourth-year clerkship students. At this time, we are not able to host other visiting student rotations within the residency program.

Prospective applicants

For full consideration, please submit your application via the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) by December 1st. Applications are reviewed holistically and interviews are offered on a rolling basis. Our program will take preference signals into consideration, but we will also consider applicants who do not signal us. Please note that our program does not support or sponsor Visas of any kind.

• Completed medical school less than five years prior to applying, or received training at another residency program after graduation.
• Three personal, detailed letters of recommendation that provide support for academic performance, clinical skill, and commitment to internal medicine. A letter from a department chair or clerkship director is strongly suggested.

• Personal statement
• Curriculum vitae
• Dean’s letter or Medical School Performance Evaluation (MSPE)
• Medical school transcript
• USMLE/COMLEX scores — Step 2 CS/Level 2-PE must have been completed prior to the ranking deadline
