Time off for Residency Interviews The School's
policy regarding time off for interviewing for residencies allows
a maximum of five days from an elective and a maximum
of two days from a required course to be granted
at the discretion of the course director. Students
wishing to be excused one or more days must obtain clearance
from the course director prior to the first class day and should
be prepared to make up time and work missed.
Peak interviewing months are November through January, although
interviewing may take place earlier, especially for the early specialty
matches, and goes on until early February. (Your rank order list
of residency programs for the National Resident Matching Program
must be submitted by mid-February, 2009--exact date to be announced
later).
