Applications and ERAS

Our program participates in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) and accepts applications exclusively through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) from the Association of American Medical Colleges. An ERAS application requires three letters of recommendation, a transcript and a Dean's letter. Based upon review of the application documents, applicants are invited for personal interviews with our faculty and residents. Spouses are encouraged to accompany the applicants for this visit to Waco. Interviews begin in early October. The Resident Selection Committee, composed of resident and faculty membership, determines the final rank order list based on a scoring system with academic records and personal interviews weighted equally.

We seek residents who are well prepared, both academically and personally, for the training program and who show evidence of genuine interest in the welfare of patients.

If you have any questions regarding the application process feel free to contact us by phone at 1-800-424-8008 or via E-mail at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Why did I choose Waco? "The people, the people,   the people. My wife hit it off with the other wives. We wanted a place with some acreage. We bought a 3 bdrm/2bath on 13 acres for what an apartment in Houston costs." Ben Edwards, Chief Resident, 2004-2005
