One way for residency applicants to inform specific residency programs about their strong interest would be through “preference signaling.” All applicants applying to residency programs would be given a specific number of “tokens” that they could submit to programs where they had the greatest interest. It is possible that informing programs this way could result in a greater likelihood of an interview at that program. ENT will be piloting this program for the current academic year. If it works well for ENT applicants and programs, it is possible that other residency programs will participate next year.
The University of Texas Medical Branch Dermatology Interest Group (UTMB DIG) is a resource for medical students interested in Dermatology as well as for dermatologists and residents.
