3. Otolaryngology Residency Application Requirements •
The Stanford Department of Otolaryngology — Head & Neck Surgery welcomes qualified applicants for consideration for appointment to its ACGME-accredited residency program. Please see the “Resident eligibility – recruitment” section of the Stanford House Staff Policies & Procedures for details of eligibility. The department encourages residency applications from all qualified individuals regardless of age, sex, ethnic background, religious beliefs, or sexual orientation with an interest and a proven track record of excellence in scholarly pursuits.
•
Stanford participates in the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) for otolaryngology. Rank lists are submitted by both the program and the resident applicants, and a matching algorithm is applied.
•
All applications received by Stanford are individually reviewed. Candidates are selected for interviews based on this initial review. Once interviews are conducted, decisions about candidate selection are made by consensus among the faculty. Approximately 45 invitations for interviews are offered from among more than 300 applications. Interviews take place on two days in January.
