Your Interview

Each year, the Division of Cardiology is fortunate to interview between 40-45 qualified applicants for four positions. These candidates are chosen from an applicant pool of close to 700. Applicants are selected from ERAS (Electronic Residency Application System) using selection criteria. Below is what you can expect throughout your Cardiology fellowship interview process.

The Fellowship Selection Sub-Committees will review your application after receipt of a completed application form. Due to the high volume of applications, applicants are strongly urged to refrain from calling to inquire whether an interview has been granted.

You will be notified about your status starting mid -September though the beginning of October. Cardiology fellowship interviews will take place in October and November.

Recruitment for Academic Year 2025 will be all-virtual (i.e. no on-site interviews). This approach supports safety, consistency, and predictability throughout the recruitment season in this unprecedented time. A large number of peer institutions and national specialty organizations have made the same decision.

We invite you to join some of our current fellows for an informal virtual “happy hour.” The actual interview day will be conducted using virtual interviews, presentations, and gatherings with our current fellows. You will have the opportunity to meet with the program leadership to get a broad overview of our program, interview with faculty members, and, most importantly, spend time getting to know our current fellows and faculty. We encourage applicants to contact the Fellowship Program Manager in advance of the interview day if there are specific faculty members with whom you would like to meet with during your interview day. We recognize that the interview day often flies by, and we encourage you to reach out with questions or concerns at any time. We look forward to getting to know you!
