Neurology Residency

Admission Requirements

In line with the AAN Neurology Residency program director and clerkship director Consensus Statement for the 2023-24 application cycle, our selection committee will:

• Complete a holistic review of applications, recognizing that access to different clinical, research, extracurricular, work and other experiences vary significantly in normal circumstances and are further impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Recognize that a significant proportion of medical students will have completed their clerkship training in a non-traditional environment during the pandemic with exclusively virtual learning experiences and online educational programming.
• Have flexibility with requirement of neurology-specific letters of recommendation for screening, acknowledging that applicants may not have had access to neurology rotations prior to applying.
• Understand that due to limited testing site availability as a result of COVID-19, Step 2CK and/or Step 2CS may not be completed.
