How to Apply
We accept applications of candidates from allopathic and osteopathic medical schools. We utilize the ERAS system to process applications. We have four categorical positions for combined internship and PM&R residency who would start with us during their PGY-1 year. We have eight advanced positions in the PM&R residency who would start with us during their PGY-2 year.
We start accepting applications in early September via ERAS and will start interviewing in late October. Interview invites will be sent out to schedule on ThalamusGME.com. All interviews will be held VIRTUALLY this year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The virtual interviews will be held during the months of October, November, December, and January. We will have a half day of virtual interviews for each applicant to get to know our program and we will also host a social hour each week during interview season for our applicants to meet more of our residents. We participate in the National Residency Matching Program and strictly adhere to the rules of the Match.
Given the unprecedented nature of the virtual recruitment, we are asking all of our applicants to include a paragraph in their personal statement about why Chicago and the PM&R residency program at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine is a good fit for you. We are also participating in the Supplemental Application for ERAS. PM&R will allot a maximum of 8 preference signals and you are instructed to signal your home institution or your clinical rotations if interested.
