How to Apply

Application Process

The Stanford Nephrology Fellowship Training Program is a participant in the ERAS program. All applicants must apply through ERAS® (Electronic Residency Application System) and will be reviewed as ERAS guidelines dictate. Interviews will be held in September and October.  

Applicants must complete an ACGME accredited residency program in the United States to apply. Our program will only sponsor J-1 visas. We cannot sponsor H-1B visas. Please find more details about International Medical Graduates & Visa sponsorship on the Stanford GME website here
