Application Process

Candidates who would like to be considered for one of two positions in the Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Fellowship program need to submit an application via ERAS.  
Interviews are by invitation only and are generally offered to applicants with a combination of solid medical school performance, above average USMLE/COMLEX scores, and recent clinical experience in U.S. hospitals in which the student or physician had meaningful responsibility for patient management decisions. In addition, three letters of recommendation are preferred.

A complete application should include:

• Curriculum Vitae/ERAS Application
• USMLE Scores (Steps 1, 2, and 3 or equivalent)
• At least 3 letters of recommendation
• Personal statement
• ECFMG (if applicable)
• Our institution sponsors J-1 Visas only
• Candidates must have completed an ACGME approved 3-year Cardiology Fellowship to be considered

A survey of trainees by the ACC revealed a majority favored in person interviews.  We concur and for years this was how they were done. It is very advantageous for the candidate to spend time seeing the facilities as well as interacting with current faculty and fellows.  We typically host a dinner the night before the interviews with the applicants and our current fellows so they can have a chance without any faculty around to get more details on the program. 

Thus, we will have in person interviews this year.
