Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship

Education / Graduate Medical Education / Prospective Fellows / Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine / How to Apply

How to Apply

We offer 6 positions per year for a total of 15 fellows in the program.

Application Deadline

Applications will be accepted until August 15, 2024.  Applicants will be notified of interviews via email.

Application Process

All positions are offered through Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS), in compliance with the ACGME rules and regulations.

Residents are selected through the National Resident Match Program (NRMP). Applicants should be a U.S. citizen, permanent resident or J-1 visa sponsored by the ECFMG to apply to our program. We do not accept H1-B visas or applications with “pending permanent residency” status. If a J- visa holder, the applicant must have adequate time to complete fellowship prior to losing J-1 status (7-year total).

  • As a prerequisite, applicants must have successfully completed Internal Medicine Residency training in an ACGME-accredited program.
  • Complete applications are reviewed by a faculty committee consisting of the program director, division chief, and at least two program faculty. This committee identifies applicants for interview in Rochester. Interviews are conducted by the key Pulmonary faculty, in rotation, who are asked to evaluate each interviewee. At interview, applicants receive information about the program and participating faculty, as well as information relative to living in the Rochester area.
  • The Fellowship Selection Committee reviews the individual interview evaluations and develops the Ranking List, which is submitted to the National Residency Matching Program.

Application Requirements Via ERAS

  • Completed ERAS Application
  • CV
  • Three letters of recommendation
  • Personal Statement

Meet our Fellows

At the University of Rochester, we have the opportunity to treat patients from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of medical problems, have outstanding research mentors who are enthusiastic to work with fellows, and have the benefit of training in an exceptionally flexible program.  Most importantly the people here are our greatest strength and why I am so happy with my decision to stay in Rochester.”
