when it comes down to Scramble, and we apply to the unmatched programs through ERAS, do we have to pay per program we apply to? and if so how much? Thanks.

You can apply through ERAS around 20-30 programs (dont remember for sure) for scramble for free. I believe you need to pay if you want to apply more than that number.

I think as long as you are IN the ERAS system, and have applied to a few programs, you can apply to as many programs you want in any specialty during the Scramble. Let me know if I'm wrong.

It is a maximum of 30 programs in addition to the programs you've already applied to...Here is something to clarify everything... "1. Add up to 30 programs to the list of programs to which you have applied 2. Try to follow up with these programs by phone 3. If a program prefers to receive your application by fax, you can still fax your application to them. You may apply to a maximum of 30 programs during the two-day USMLE Post Match scramble. There is no charge for applying to programs during the USMLE Post Match scramble. However, to release your application, you must complete the payment process, even if the amount due is zero. Any programs to which you apply after 12:00 noon, Eastern Time in the United States, on Thursday, March 17, 2005 will be charged at the regular rate. For more information, see ERAS 2005 Application Fees on the AAMC ERAS website. "

Thanks. If we have already applied to a program, but not gotten an interview and they have a spot open for Scramble, do we have to re-apply to that program? Or is it considered that we have already applied to that program?
