Applying to BROWN EM

What to expect for the 2024-2025 Residency Application and Interview Season

 

Echoing concerns over the financial and time costs to applicants associated with in-person interviews, the environmental impact associated with interview travel, and a desire for increased fairness and equity, Brown Emergency Medicine Residency at Rhode Island Hospital/Brown University has decided to maintain a virtual interview season for the upcoming cycle. The format of interviews (in-person vs. virtual) will not impact our ranking of the applicant.

 

We review applications with a holistic eye. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and we will continue to send offers to interview throughout the Fall/Winter. The timing of an invitation is in no way indicative of your strength as an applicant, but simply a reflection of the time intensive process it takes us to thoroughly review your materials as we consider the entirety of your application in the decision-making process.

 

We will offer morning or afternoon interviews on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from mid-November through mid-January.

 

2024-2025 Interview Dates:

​

• November 5,6, 12, 13, 19, 20 

• December 3, 4, 10, 11, 17, 18 

• January 7, 8

 

We continue to notify applicants about decisions (including rejections) throughout the entire season. We never offer more invitations than we have open spots to interview, so rest assured you will have a spot when you get an invite.

Although we won't be able to meet you in person, please plan on attending a virtual applicant social with our residents the Tuesday evening before (or after) your interview. Spouses and significant others are more than welcome to attend these virtual social gatherings to get to know our residents in a unique way!

2024-2025 In-person Second Look Dates:

​

• January 22

• January 29 (specific date for those who identify as a person of color or underrepresented in medicine) 

• February 5

​

In-person Second Looks will give you a more in-depth look at our residency program and will include time at our weekly residency conference, tours of the emergency departments, meet and greets with program leadership, lunch and dinner with our residents, as well as the opportunity to experience our beloved city of Providence, RI.
 

We consider your application to be your demonstration of interest in our program, and we look forward to reviewing your application.

 

We wish everyone the best of luck in The Match!
