The Saint Louis University Pediatrics Residency Program accepts applications solely through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).
To be considered complete, your application must have a dean's letter as well as at least two letters of recommendation (preferably one from your chairperson or director of pediatric student education or residency). Passing scores for the USMLE Step 2 and USMLE CS exams must be uploaded to ERAS by interview date, for our program to consider you for ranking.
Osteopathic Students
COMLEX level 1 and level 2 scores are accepted in place of USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 scores. Passing scores on the COMLEX 2 CE and COMLEX 2 PE must be uploaded to ERAS by interview date, for our program to consider you for ranking. We encourage applicants to also take USMLE examinations to facilitate fair comparisons in our ranking process.
International Graduates
You must have a certificate from Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) to apply. Foreign nationals must obtain a permanent resident, H1B, or J-1 visa sponsored through the ECFMG. Contact the ECFMG for information about visa sponsorship applications and current immigration regulations for postgraduate training.
