Residency Application Process

The Urology Residency Training Program participates in both the AUA (American Urological Association) and ERAS (Electronic Residency Application Service) Residency Matching Programs.  Applicants must register with both the AUA and ERAS websites.  No paper applications will be accepted. Only complete applications submitted through the ERAS system will be reviewed for positions beginning at the PGY-1 level the following academic year. Please contact your school’s Dean's office for additional information regarding the ERAS electronic application process. Please visit the SAU website for up-to-date interview and match process information

All applications submitted are reviewed in September and invitations to interview virtually with the Residency Training Program will be sent out on 10/25/24.  Responses from students will be due on 10/28/24.  Interview dates this year are Tuesday, 11/19/24 and Thursday, 11/21/24.  All interview invitations will be sent via e-mail.  All interviews will be virtual. During your interviews, you will meet with the urology faculty and residents. 

A complete ERAS application consists of the following elements:

• Application
• CV
• Your photograph
• Personal statement
• Dean's letter and medical school transcript
• Three letters of recommendation
• Official USMLE scores, Part I & Part 2 or National Board scores, Part I & Part 2

If you have had previous postgraduate training, please send letters of recommendation from the program director(s) of your first postgraduate year program and any subsequent residency training.

Graduates of foreign medical schools who apply to U.S. residency programs must have a valid ECFMG certificate.  The Education Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates had a very informative and helpful website, http://www.ecfmg.org.  Those who are not U.S. citizens must be able to meet the current requirements for a United States visa. If accepted into the program, an H-1B visa will be arranged for you, for the length of the training program, by the OHSU Office of Graduate Medical Education. For answers to procedural questions specific to the ECFMG, students and graduates of non-LCME accredited medical schools, please visit the ERAS for International Medical Student Graduates Applicants website.

The Urology Residency Training Program will schedule one virtual open house in September (date to be added).  The open house will include an overview of the program and a Q&A chat session with the residents. Please RSVP and submit questions to driscols@ohsu.edu
