RESIDENCY APPLICATION &
ERAS CONSULTING

Guidance from the experts so you can stand out and shine for Residency Matching.

MEDICAL RESIDENCY & MATCH CONSULTING

With competition for medical residency higher than it has ever been, we’re here to set your application apart with insider advice and guidance, and to ensure you optimize all elements of the residency application process. Our residency consultants are residents and attendings who have successfully guided hundreds of students from residency application through the Match.

Typical residency consulting work consists of:

In this sample, 3 hours are spent on personal statement editing, and 1 hour each on resume refining; general advisement, strategy & support; reviewing ERAS/the whole application; and interview prep and debriefs.


Whether you’re looking for a one-time targeted planning session, or you’d like to comprehensively review your residency application and prepare for interviews, our experienced residency consultants are here to ensure you shine and to tailor our services to precisely what you need.


You and your tutor can decide what’s best for you! Also, many of our consultants also specialize in certain aspects of the residency application process — including working with IMGs and FMGs.
