Dear Applicant: Thank you for your inquiry about the Internal Medical Residency Program in the Department of Medicine at the New York Presbyterian Hospital-Weill Cornell Medical Center. The Department recruits for three program tracks: 1) Three Year Categorical Track (35 positions); 2) Primary Care Track (four positions); and, 3) Medical Research Track (four positions). You may apply to as many of the tracks as interest you. Applications to each of the three tracks are considered independently. Interviews begin early December 2006, continue through late January 2007, and are by invitation only. The application deadline is November 30, 2006. You may learn more about our Program and Institution by pointing your Web browser to www.nycornell.org/medicine/residency.html. Use the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) either through your Dean's Office or, if you are an international medical school graduate, through the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) (http://www.ecfmg.org/). Also visit the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) page (http://nrmp.aamc.org/nrmp/). Applicants must subscribe to ERAS and the NRMP to be considered. There are no post-match positions. Because of the great number of highly qualified persons applying to our program, very few international medical graduates will be invited to interview. On average there have been zero-to-three international medical school graduates in the three years of the program. Most transfer into the program after successful completion of internship in an ACGME-accredited medicine program. Applicants should have substantial research experiences, outstanding letters of recommendation from their clinical and research supervisors in the United States, and valid ECFMG certification. Though there is no specific board score requirement, a higher score holds greater weight. The NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Center sponsors J-1 (http://www.ecfmg.org/) and H-1B visas (http://uscis.gov/graphics/index.htm). You are responsible for retaining an immigration lawyer and for all associated administrative costs, including the Premium Processing Service http://uscis.gov/graphics/howdoi/prem_process.htm). The NRMP Match Numbers are as follows: Categorical Internal Medical Program 1492140C0 Medical Research Program 1492140C1 Primary Care Internal Medicine Program 1492140M0 Please comply with the following guidelines when completing your application. 1. Completed ERAS application: a. If you have been elected to AOA, include this in the application under "Medical Educ.", field "Did you receive the Alpha Omega Alpha award?"; b. If you have taken or are scheduled to take an elective at the NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/ Weill Cornell Medical Center include this information in your personal statement. Include the name of the Department/Division, to-from dates and supervisor's name (e.g., "Heme/Onc, 7/1/99-7/31/99, J Leonard"); 2. Dean's Letter; 3. Medical School Transcript; 4. USMLE 1 and USMLE 2 Transcripts; 5. ECFMG Certificate (Valid Indefinitely); 5. At least two Faculty Letters of Recommendation (more than two is OK!); 6. A Letter from the Department of Medicine Chairman; 7. Brief Personal Statement (optional). Applicants will be considered for an interview on the basis of their overall record.

Applicants interviewed have a minimum score of 80 and must have passed on their first attempt. 3. ECFMG report and certificate for international medical graduates (this includes U.S. applicants attending medical schools outside of the U.S as well as non-U.S. citizens applying from non-U.S. medical schools) (ERAS) 4. An official transcript from the applicant's medical school (ERAS) 5. Dean's letter (ERAS) 6. The Department of Medicine letter (ERAS) 7. Two letters of recommendation (ERAS) 8.

The deadline for receiving applications is December 15th of each calendar year. A personal interview is a required part of the application process.

Thank you for your interest in pursuing Mercy Catholic Medical Center Internal Medicine Residency training opportunities. MCMC has no minimum score requirements for residency candidates. We look at all aspects of an individual’s medical education and clinical experience, and our interview selection process is competitive. We only accept applications through ERAS. Having completed requirements such as passage of step 3 (if interested in a H-1B visa) tend to work in one’s favor toward being considered for an interview. The program supports the pursuit of any visa type. However, the selected visa pathway must allow you to begin training by July 1, 2007. No off cycle starts are permitted. Our heavy involvement with local medical school students prevents us from offering observerships, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania does not permit IMG’s to perform clinical clerkships/externships. If you’ve graduated from medical school some time ago, it would be in your best interest to be able to demonstrate some recent clinical experience.

If you have any such experience or plan to do a clinical rotation in the United States, please supply detailed information about the content of the rotation and be sure to include letters of recommendation from that institution.

There are no specific criteria for length of time since medical school graduation; however clinical experience within the past 2 years is an asset. In addition, our department will sponsor for a J1 visa. Our current House Staff consists of approximately 75% International Medical Graduates from a wide variety of countries. We cannot comment on your potential without reviewing your entire file from ERAS. If you submitted an attachment, we regret we are unable to open it due to the risk of viruses. All ERAS files are reviewed. All candidates should participate in the NRMP Match, however a limited number of pre-match positions may be offered to outstanding candidates. We cannot comment on your potential without reviewing your entire file from ERAS. Please feel free to apply and let the House Staff Selection Committee decide on your suitability. ERAS application packets are available through the ECFMG. Incomplete and paper applications will not be considered for an interview. Due to the cost of postage, brochures are not mailed to overseas addresses. If you provide us, (in writing or via e-mail) with a U.S. address, one will be mailed to you.

DEPARTMENT OF MEDICINE NORWALK HOSPITAL MEMORANDUM TO: International Applicants for Internal Medicine Residency Training FROM: Janet Johnson Residency Registrar RE: Information and Requirements for Applications for Training in 2007 We require that you have scores of 85 or better on both Step 1 and Step 2 of the USMLE. An ECFMG certificate is required to enter a U.S. residency. Therefore, the CSA, which is required for ECFMG certification, is mandatory unless you have a certificate which was issued before that requirement was added. Though not absolutely required, we do check for U.S. experience, and it is definitely to your advantage. The deadline for applications is December 1, 2006. Regarding year of graduation, we do not have a ruling, but want to know what you have been doing since graduation. We do have international physicians in our housestaff. We do sponsor J-1 visas. In regard to H-1 visas, we do sponsor those on occasion, but that would be determined with the Residency Program Director, at the time of the interview. We prefer that all requirements for the H-1 visa be completed before we sponsor such a visa, i.e. you should plan to take the Step 3 exam by the end of 2006 or early in 2007. If you take the Step III exam in early 2007, you should anticipate using the expedited process which takes only two weeks. We are participating in the ERAS program, and will not accept paper applications. To obtain applications and information on that program, write ECFMG-ERAS Program, Box 13467, Philadelphia, PA 19104-3467, U.S.A., or go to the ECFMG/ERAS web site at: www.ecfmg.org/erasinfo.htm.
