How to Apply Emergency Medicine

Become an Emergency Medicine Resident

We participate in the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). Hard copy applications will not be considered. Only completed applications will be reviewed in order to be offered an interview. Interview offers are given on a rolling basis beginning in mid-October. We currently have no unexpected vacancies in the residency and all of our applicant positions are committed through ERAS and the National Residency Match Program (NRMP) only. 

A completed application includes:

  • ERAS Common Application
  • Medical Student Performance Evaluation (MSPE) - [medical school Dean’s Letter]
  • Three Letters of Recommendation (two of which must be written by emergency medicine physicians). Those provided by emergency medicine specialists it is preferred that they use the CORD Standardized Letter of Evaluation (SLOE) template (formerly called the SLOR),  which can be downloaded in the adjacent section by clicking "SLOE form". 
  • Step 1 UMSLE or Step 1 NBOME transcripts
  • Medical school transcript
  • Personal statement


All correspondence regarding the status of your application is conducted by e-mail. Therefore, applicants should have a reliable e-mail address that is checked in a timely manner. If you have not received a timely response to your email communication, or have additional questions, please call 602.344.5808, or email the program coordinator, Michele "Miki" Floring, at michelefloring@creighton.edu.
