Interview Information

The evening before interviews, applicants are invited to a virtual "happy hour" with our residents. This casual event is led by a Chief Resident and allows applicants a relaxed atmosphere to learn more about the personality of our program and have their questions answered.

During the interview day, applicants can expect a minimum of three virtual interviews with faculty, as well as a virtual social hour around lunchtime to meet more of our residents.

We know your time is valuable! Applicants can plan on spending about half of the day with us. Interviews are scheduled in the AM or PM to decrease the amount of wasted time for applicants.
