National Resident Matching Program (NRMP)

There are two ways to match into the Transitional Year Program:

  1. Match into an Emory advanced program that has positions linked to our Transitional Year Program. There are three programs that have NRMP numbers that directly link to our Transitional Year Program:
    • Transitional/Anesthesiology: 1113999P1*
    • Transitional/Neurology: 1113999P2*
    • Transitional/Radiology: 1113999P3*
  2. Match directly into the Transitional Year Program. In this case, the general Transitional Year Program NRMP number is 1113999P0.

* If you are applying to one of these advanced programs, be sure to use the specific NRMP number above, as well as including the general Transitional Year Program NRMP number (1113999P0) on your secondary rank list. For these programs, a separate interview with the Transitional Year Program is not necessary; the interview scores obtained during your interview with the advanced program will be communicated with the Transitional Year Program Director prior to rank link submission.

Please note: registering with ERAS does not register applicants with the NRMP nor does registering with the NRMP register applicants to ERAS. View the NRMP Match Schedule here.

Interview Information

If you are scheduled to interview with one of Emory's advanced programs (anesthesiology, dermatology, neurology, radiology, radiation oncology, ophthalmology, or PM&R), you will NOT need a separate interview with our program.

We work closely with the advanced programs regarding each applicant and will rank you after their interviews have ended.

We do not offer interviews to anyone not offered an interview with an Emory advanced program. If you are interested in the program, please apply via ERAS and email Kymberly McMillan, our Transitional Year Program Coordinator, expressing your interest. All emails will be kept on file to ensure your application/interest is considered appropriately. A formal interview will not be offered and is not required.
