Application Process

Our program will be participating in the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP) and Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) for our 2023 fellowship positions.  

Applications are reviewed by the Fellowship Program Director, Associate Program Director and Coordinator. This year, we will be offering virtual Zoom interviews to selected applicants.

Applicants can begin uploading their application materials into ERAS on July 1, 2022.  Our program will only review complete applications.  NRMP Match results will be released in November 2022.

Application deadline for 2023 Fellowship is September 30, 2022.

The ERAS system opens in June for applicants to begin working on their applications. However, applicants will be unable to formally apply to our program (or any other pediatric infectious diseases fellowship program) until July 1, 2022.

Interview days will take place on select Tuesdays during late August through early November 2022.

Applicants to the program will be expected to have completed a pediatric residency program approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). Two years of ACGME residency training in the United States or Canada is also required for a California medical license. Applicants who are accepted into the Fellowship Program must apply for a California medical license at least six months in advance of the fellowship start date since it can take a minimum of six months to obtain a license. You must have an active California medical license prior to the starting date of your fellowship. Also, you will need to have a DEA license at the start of fellowship.
