Applicants

Application Form  |  Departments

The University of North Carolina Hospitals is a participating member of the National Resident Matching Program, Dental National Matching Service, and other advanced residency matching programs.

• Applicants for First-Year post-M.D. or D.D.S. Positions: Mail applications directly to the program to which you are applying
• Applicants for Positions Beyond the First Year: Application should be sent directly to the Chief of Service in which the applicant is interested. Three letters of recommendation should include one from the Hospital in which the applicant has most recently served and two from members of its professional staff. These also should be sent directly to the Chief of Service for which the application is made. Provide the program's forwarding address (not the Hospitals or GME) when requesting letters of recommendation.
• FOREIGN GRADUATES: ALL graduates of foreign medical schools must be certified by the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates. All alien foreign graduates must meet all VISA Qualifying Examination (VQE) or Foreign Medical Graduate Exam in the Medical Sciences (FMGEMS) requirements prior to application.

Documentation of sponsorship qualifications must be submitted with application. If photocopies of the supporting documents are submitted, they must be certified by a notary public that they are true and exact copies of the original documents.

Personal interviews will be arranged by the individual program. Due to the large number of applicants for each of our programs, a recent photograph of you would be helpful but not mandatory; in no way will this be used to determine interview eligibility or selection priority.
