Positions

The Division of Dermatology at the University of Kansas Health System offers 5 positions each year.

Application Process

For the 2023 ERAS® cycle, our program will be participating in the supplemental ERAS application offered through the AAMC's ERAS program. Applicants will be required to complete the MyERAS application, and participation in the supplemental ERAS application is optional.

You must apply through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).

The application and all supporting documentation must be submitted by November 30th.

To apply to the program, visit the ERAS website. All applications must include:

  •       MyERAS application
  •       Personal Statement
  •       Medical School Transcripts
  •       Letters of Recommendation - at least 3 
  •       Medical School Performance Evaluation (MSPE or "Dean's Letter")
  •       USMLE transcripts and/or COMLEX-USA transcripts
  •       An Internal Medicine Chair or Departmental letter is optional.

All appointments are made through the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP). Candidates must register through the NRMP website.  Personal interviews are by invitation only and are based on the applicant's academic performance, United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) scores and/or COMLEX-USA scores, letters of recommendation and other accomplishments as detailed in the ERAS application. 

If selected for an interview, applicants will be notified by email. We are unable to provide applicants with a status report regarding their application or selection for interview.  

Applicants should complete USMLE Step 1, Step 2 CK exams (or equivalent COMLEX exams) and release their scores to ensure that we can view the results of these exams before the NRMP rank list deadline in mid-February.

Interview Process

We interview ~70 applicants for our 5 positions. Interviews will be offered in a virtual environment for the 2022-2023 recruitment season.

Interviews are conducted on Thursdays in January.

On the night before your scheduled interview, there will be a virtual welcome session where you can informally meet our residents as well.
