Application Process

 

Applications are accepted from graduates of approved medical schools in the United States and abroad. Graduating medical students may apply for admission to the first postgraduate year. Applicants with postgraduate training in Internal Medicine, Family Practice, Pediatrics or Transitional Year residencies may apply for entry at an advanced level. All graduates of foreign medical schools are required to pass the USMLE certification prior to application for the first post-graduate year. Personal interviews in Memphis are required and are arranged at the mutual convenience of the applicant and the Department of Psychiatry. We request that all letters of reference, CV, personal statement and transcripts be forwarded to the training program prior to the interview. Arrangements can usually be made for applicants who so desire to stay in the homes of residents currently in the program.
