Applications and Interviews
The Brown University Medicine/Pediatrics Residency participates in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP). Applications are accepted from graduates of approved medical schools exclusively through the Electronic Residency Application System (ERAS). M.D. and D.O. graduates from U.S. schools register for ERAS through their Dean's Office.
DEADLINE for submitting your application is November 28, 2009.
We invite qualified applicants for a personal interview, which includes the opportunity to meet faculty and residents, and to tour Rhode Island/Hasbro Children's and Women's and Infants Hospitals. Invitations to interview are extended beginning in late October (see the "Invitation to Interview" section below for additional information). Interview appointment opportunities generally fill early.
