Preliminary Program Requirements
Applicants to other disciplines (i.e. anesthesia,
dermatology, neurology, radiology), requiring a preliminary year must submit a separate ERAS application to our
Internal Medicine Preliminary Program in addition to the specialty application.
Efforts are
made to coordinate interview dates with other subspecialty interviews at Hershey
but can not be guaranteed. Separate interview dates may not be
necessary depending on the specialty program.
For further information regarding our program, please contact Debbie Stevens
at dstevens@hmc.psu.edu
The NRMP requires all interviewees to receive a
copy of the resident contract. This
