Eligibility
All candidates should have completed at least 2 years of Internal Medicine training in an ACGME-accredited program in the United States. This includes international medical graduates (IMG), who generally must have completed an ACGME-accredited residency program in the United States. ECFMG certification and a completed ERAS file are necessary to apply. Applicants are expected to be Internal Medicine board-eligible at the beginning of their first fellowship year, and they are expected to complete the requirements for board certification within the first months of joining the fellowship.
Non-US citizens who are entering a BWH ACGME accredited training program are required to obtain visa sponsorship prior to beginning their program. The Department of Medicine sponsors J-1 and H-1B visas. Visa holders are not eligible to be funded by NIH training grants (Research track) or to practice as an attending (Academic Leadership track) which limits the possibility of the fellowship program to accept visa candidates.
Application Process
Applications to the Brigham and Women's Endocrine Fellowship are processed through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). Applicants should submit their application to the desired track, and must include:
- ERAS Application
- Three letters of recommendation (including one from the Residency Program Director)
- USMLE Transcript
- ECFMG report (if applicable)
- Personal Statement
- Medical School Transcript
- Photo (optional)
Applications should be submitted by Noon (Eastern time) July 23, 2024. We expect interview invitations to be issued within 2 weeks after this deadline. Interviews are usually conducted on most Wednesdays in September and October. Plans for interviews (in-person vs. via videoconferencing) in 2024 are still being finalized. We participate in the National Resident Matching Program.
