How to Apply

The St. Joseph’s University Medical Center Anesthesia Residency Program accepts applications through the AAMC Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) only (https://students-residents.aamc.org/applying-residencies-eras/applying-residencies-eras).

 We will begin reviewing applications when the MyERAS portal opens to programs in late September. The interview season will start in October and last through January.  We will be continuing virtual interviews this year as per the recommendations of both the Association of American Medical Colleges and the Association of Anesthesiology Core Program Directors.

If selected for interview, you will receive an informational video presentation about the program by our Program Director and a virtual tour of the hospital. Close to the interview date you will have an opportunity to join a virtual “Meet and Greet” with several of our residents to learn more about the program and ask questions. The interview day will consist of three interviews lasting approximately 25-30 minutes apiece, with the Program Director, Chairman and other faculty. Interviews typically are scheduled to begin in the mid-afternoon.

We offer 7 Advanced positions (starting at PGY2) and one “physician-only” or “R” position for someone who will have completed (at least) their PGY 1 by July of the match year (total of 8/year). Although our 7 Advanced positions require the applicant to apply separately for their PGY1, the Dept. of Surgery has 2 “linked” preliminary positions available, also known as Joint Advanced/Preliminary Programs, for applicants who are interested in a surgical preliminary year (https://www.nrmp.org/help/item/what-is-a-joint-advanced-preliminary-program). No separate application or interview is needed for that position.
