Medical Genetics Residency Application
The Medical Genetics Residency requires applicants to have passing USMLE Step 1 and 2 scores. We do not have a minimum score cut-off and do not require Step 2 completion by the time applications open but will require it by the time we rank applicants in February. We prefer that you have graduated from medical school within the last three years.
Applications for PGY-1 resident positions are accepted only through the Electronic Residency Application System (ERAS).
