All applications are accepted exclusively though ERAS,  www.aamc.org/eras, from Sept 1st to Nov 30th. 

In order to maintain our standards of excellence here at Jacobi, applicants should score at least in the 87th percentile on Step 1, 87th on Step 2 CK and must pass Step 2CS (All exams must be passed on the first attempt). While these criteria are not set in stone, they strongly influence our decisions.  Incomplete applications will not be reviewed; USMLE scores, a complete CV, a personal statement, 3 letters of recommendation, a medical school transcript, and an MSPE from your medical school are all required. We suggest that you get these all in to ERAS as soon as possible in order to ensure that your file is reviewed as early in the season as possible.

Foreign Medical Graduates requesting H-1 and J-1 Visas are considered. Please note however, that applicants with H-1 Visas must pass Step 3 prior to Feb 15th.

We receive over 5,000 applications for our 30 categorical and 8 preliminary PGY-1 openings.  We usually interview about 8% of applicants.

Due to the large volume of applications that we review, it is not always possible for us to contact all applicants immediately. Please do not call with questions or to ask about the status of your application.  If you are selected for an interview, we will contact you.
