Process & Communication

Creighton University’s OBGYN Residency Program participates in ResidencyCAS, and will only accept applications through this service. We will conduct virtual interviews for all applicants. 

U.S. MD and DO applicants should always begin by contacting their degree-granting medical school to gain access to the ResidencyCAS application. Canadian Medical graduates should begin by contacting CaRMS for assistance. International Medical Graduates (IMGs) should begin by contacting the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) to start the process.

The Program Director and the Application Review Committee review all applications that meet the criteria and determine which applicants to invite for an interview. 

We participate in the NRMP (National Residency Match Program).

Post-Interview Communication Protocol

We encourage all applicants to investigate each program thoroughly as their rank lists are created. Please feel free to contact our Residency Coordinator, rebeccalair@creighton.edu (Rebecca Lair) through email about any objective information regarding the Creighton program you might need after your virtual interview. To maximize compliance with the spirit of the NRMP guidelines regarding communication between applicants and programs, please do not send “thank-you” notes. They are unnecessary and irrelevant in our selection process.
