How to Apply

Residency applicants must provide:

- USMLE Step II CK and CS scores is required to begin any of our residency training programs – score reports are highly recommended prior to rank list due date. We also prefer those who passed their USMLE examinations on the first attempt.
Application Deadlines
The deadline to submit ERAS applications for the Child Neurology Residency Program is Dec. 1. However, we recommend applying by early October. Once your completed application is submitted, it will be forwarded for review by the selection committee.
