Flower Requirements
The application must include the following:
writing
  • Dean's letter (MSPE) and transcript
  • Application form
  • At least three letters of reference. One must be from someone who worked closely with you on a pediatrics rotation and who writes many letters for students, such as the student clerkship director, the director of inpatient services, or one of the residency program directors.
  • Curriculum vita, including honors and publications
  • USLME scores (Step I and Step II, if available)
  • Personal statement. While we recognize that most applicants use a generic personal statement for all applications, we are much more interested in learning about you personally, than about why you chose pediatrics. We want to know about your accomplishments (things you're proud of), your passions, your specific research experiences, your leadership experiences, creative or unusual things you've done, and what you are thinking of doing after your residency. We would also like to know where you grew up and things during that period that influenced your life. Please attach an addendum to your generic personal statement discussing these things if they are not otherwise covered.
  • Reasonably good quality color photograph
  • Applicants with an MD/PhD or other comparable extensive research experiences should also include a letter from their research supervisor
