Residency Application Service (ERAS)

The Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) is an online platform used by medical students and graduates to apply for residency programs, which are specialized training positions after medical school. It streamlines the application process by allowing applicants to submit their personal information, academic achievements, test scores, letters of recommendation, and personal statements in one secure system. Residency programs then review these applications to select candidates for interviews and offers. ERAS simplifies communication between applicants and programs, making the complex process of matching into specialized training more efficient and organized.
