How to Apply

Apply now to the Orthopaedic Residency Program at Brown.

Apply Now

We hope that you will apply to Brown's Orthopaedic Residency Program.

The Department of Orthopaedics participates in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP).  Each year, Brown Orthopaedics matches six first-year residents (PGY-1s).  All applications are handled through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).  This year we are participating in the ERAS supplemental application and program signaling.

Application Requirements

  • Photograph
  • Personal statement
  • Medical Student Performance Evaluation (MSPE) - "Dean's letter"
  • Medical school transcript
  • CV
  • USMLE Step 1 score (USMLE Step 2 score is encouraged but not required)
  • 3 letters of recommendation (The CORD eSLOR is preferred but not required), a Chairman's letter is not required. 

 

Electronic Standardized Letter of Recommendation (eSLOR)

 The Electronic Standardized Letter of Recommendation (eSLOR) provides orthopaedic residency programs a concise perspective on a candidate. It replaces a separate narrative letter of recommendation.

It was devised and adopted by the members of the Council of Orthopaedic Residency Directors (CORD), which represents a substantial portion of orthopaedic residency programs in the United States and Canada.

Required Steps for Applicants

Prior to creating an eSLOR, medical students must:

  • Sign an agreement
  • Provide their ERAS AAMC ID

Medical students: Complete this step

Please do not email or mail additional documents directly to the program.  All documents must be uploaded in (ERAS).

Application Deadline 

The deadline for submitting application material in (ERAS) is October 10, 2022. Any application submitted after this date will not be considered. 

    Interview Day

    Interview dates: Wednesday, January 11, 2023 and Tuesday, January 17, 2023.  Our program will be offering virtual interviews only per our GMEC.  We typically hold two interview days every year, with each day split into two groups – a morning and an afternoon group. As much as the day is for us to interview you, we hope that you get a good sense for our program, residents, faculty and facilities as well.

    There will be a few presentations on the program to start off the interview day, followed by roughly 4-5 interview sessions with faculty and residents. The residents will have their own virtual room where you will be able to visit at any time during the interview day. We will also be hosting virtual open houses along with a virtual tour of our facilities. Dates will be posted on this website and the AOA CORD ORIN website.

    If you have any questions regarding the application process, please email our Residency Coordinator, Suzanne Swanson.
