Application Process
The Harvard Med-Peds Program participates in the National Resident Match Program (NRMP). All applications are considered without regard to race, religion, gender, or national origin. An interview is an important part of the application process. Invitations for personal interviews, which occur from December through January, are issued only after the applicant’s file is completed and reviewed by members of the Internship Selection Committee. Applications will be handled through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) which is provided by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). ERAS is a paperless application service that allows you to transmit your residency application, Dean's letter, letters of recommendation, and transcript over the Internet. We will not be mailing out or accepting paper applications. For more information on ERAS and to download an application, please visit the AAMC's website: www.aamc.org/eras/ais/start.htm (note: page will open in a new browser window).
