Hematology/Medical Oncology Fellowship Application

Residency applications for the University of Vermont Hematology/Medical Oncology Fellowship Program at Fletcher Allen are submitted via Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).

The Hematology/Medical Oncology Fellowship Program at Fletcher Allen participates in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP).

Applications are accepted from July 1 to October 15, 2012. Individual interviews are scheduled from late July to early November according to the applicant's convenience.

At the time of application, applicants are strongly encouraged to submit a statement of interest in our fellowship program by email to the program coordinator or in the ERAS Personal Statement. Once an applicant is invited to interview, we welcome any additional requests for special information, to meet particular faculty, or visit specific facilities or programs across the entire institution in order to tailor the interview to an applicant's specific interests.

Materials required from all applicants are:

Application

Curriculum Vitae

Personal Statement

Dean's Letter

Transcripts

A minimum of three (3) recent letters of reference from direct supervisors

Successful completion of both Steps 1 and 2 of the United States Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE)

International applicants must:

Have a J-1 Visa or have a U.S. citizen Permanent Resident status. No other Visas will be accepted. (H1B are not acceptable.) The visa you hold at the time of application is the only one we can consider.

Have a current certificate from the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG)

Successfully completed the Clinical Skills requirement

Have worked in clinical medicine in the United States within the last two years

NOTE: an observership does not fulfill this requirement

We invite one applicant at a time to come to interview. The interview lasts the greater part of one day and typically applicants find it convenient to arrive the previous night. The interview schedule is variable depending on the day of the week but involves meeting several faculty for at least a half hour each, lunch with at least one current fellow, a tour of the main facilities, and occasionally attending a conference or rounds. Due to the large volume of applications, we contact only those applicants we intend to interview.

We are committed to maintaining the integrity of the entire application process to conform to the highest ethical standards and to provide a personal, individualized, and informative experience for each candidate.
