Osteopathic Graduates: All residents must have completed a preliminary “internship” year of training in a U.S.-accredited program prior to entering our residency. The Radiation Oncology residency program does not include an integrated internship year, but does require a preliminary year of study in either internal medicine, pediatrics or general surgery, chosen by the resident. Applications are accepted from Sept. 1 until Dec. 31.
IMGs interested in applying to our program must apply through ERAS. We do not accept paper or email applications.
The Department of Radiation Oncology sponsors J-1 visas only. Individuals must have graduated from medical school within the past five years and completed one year of preliminary training in a U.S.-accredited program recognized by the American Board of Radiology (ABR).
IMGs must possess a valid ECFMG certificate which requires passing all components of the USMLE exam as well as other examinations as required by the ECFMG.

Successful completion of USMLE Step 1 is required for application. Applications are reviewed in their entirety with no minimum score requirement; however, typical Step 1 USMLE scores for selected candidates have ranged in the upper 30 percent of all scores. A passing score on all components, including Clinical Skills, is required prior to the start of residency.
