Emergency Medicine Residency Application Instructions

Applications to the residency at NYU Langone’s Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine are accepted from senior medical students from accredited medical schools and other qualified candidates through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) and National Resident Matching Program.

We will begin reviewing applications on September 25, 2024. Due to the large number of applications received each year, applicants are strongly encouraged to have all application documents submitted by that date. In keeping with nationwide Emergency Medicine practices, we will release our first round of interview invitations on October 16, 2024. at 7pm ET. Invited applicants will be able to schedule their interviews starting the next day, October 17 at 7pm ET. We will offer both virtual and in-person interview options throughout the season, starting in late October and extending into January.

We are again participating in the Preference Signaling program through ERAS. Applicants are encouraged to assign signal tokens at their discretion; signal tokens are not required in order to be offered an invitation to interview with us.

Both virtual and in-person interviews will again be offered this year. Applicants may choose whichever format best suits their preferences, budgets, calendars, and geography. We work hard to ensure that virtual and in-person interview days provide equitable experiences, information, and opportunity for engagement to all applicants, regardless of their ability to travel to NYU Langone during this interview season. The choice of interview format will NOT affect an applicant’s chances of matching with our program. Applicants who interview virtually are welcome to come for an optional in-person "second look" visit if they feel that would help them understand our program and community better. Second look visits are neither required nor expected, however. We will again offer several "West Coast" interview dates which will be conducted virtually starting 3 hours later than usual for the convenience of applicants located in Mountain, Pacific, and Hawaiian time zones.

Throughout interview season we will host social events for invited applicants to meet and get to know current residents in our program. All social events are open to all applicants who have been invited to interview; invited applicants are encouraged to attend whichever event(s) they choose, and none are required.

If you are interested in learning more about our program prior to applying, we are hosting a virtual info session on September 18th at 8pm ET (please contact our program coordinator for the Zoom link, her email address is listed below). We also will have program representatives at residency fairs at LMSA in Los Angeles, EMRA/ACEP in Las Vegas, and at the virtual New York State PD panel.

For medical students interested in learning more about our program by rotating with us at NYU Langone’s Ronald O. Perelman Center for Emergency Services and NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, we have clinical rotation (subinternship) opportunities available to visiting students.
