The NPM Fellowship Program at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital participates in the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP) sanctioned "Match" and uses the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) and Thalamus GME as the common platforms for fellowship recruitment. Please visit the ERAS website and the Thalamus website for information and timelines. In general, our interview season begins late August and runs through late October. Interviews are virtual, consisting of 3 Faculty interviews and a virtual “lunch” interview with our Fellows. To ensure equity in the application process, MedStar GME does not allow in-person visits until after rank lists have been locked. The AAP ONTPD website also provides useful information and links to ERAS and the NRMP. Click on "Fellowship Applicants" on the website.
Candidates must provide the following:
- ERAS Application/CV
- Personal Statement
- Dean’s Letter
- Medical school transcripts
- USMLE and/or COMLEX score report
- LORs
- One letter from the Pediatric Residency Program Director
- 2 or more other letters from faculty members (at least one from NICU, with whom you have worked during the past 2 years)
International Medical School graduates should provide a copy of the ECFMG certificate.
MedStar Georgetown University Hospital does not support H1 visa applications but will support J1 visa applications for international medical graduates.
