Applicants must apply through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) and participate in the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP). Applicants must be in their 4th year of medical school or a graduate of an American or Canadian medical school. In addition, the applicant must either be eligible for licensure or hold a valid medical license in the State of California.
International Medical Graduates will be considered on an individual basis. UC San Diego accepts ECFMG-sponsored J-1 visas. Note: H-1B visas are not available to trainees at our institution.
This residency program requires an ACGME-approved non-radiology clinical internship prior to beginning radiology training. The application process for an internship is entirely separate from this radiology residency application process. Your internship does not need to be at UC San Diego Medical Center. Most of our residents complete a Preliminary Medicine, Surgery, or Transitional Year Internship.
Application Deadline: October 7, 2024
Virtual Interview Dates:
Our Selection Committee will review all applications, including the Student Performance Evaluation Letters (Dean's Letter) in late October. If selected, you will be contacted to schedule a personal interview. All interviews are scheduled during the month of December. Do not wait until the deadline to submit your application! We will review applications and extend invitations on a rolling basis.
