Hey,

Does anyone know if there's any quicker way to find out which programs require secondary apps than hunting around on each program's website? Will they automatically send it to you after you apply through ERAS?

Thanks.

Central website? You're looking at it. This place has all the info you could ever want.

Use the Search button at the top to look for old posts. I searched for "Interview" and found this link for all the interviews and when they were invited for last year:



If you have any questions, especially about NYC programs, let me know.

Thanks, cspine. That list looks pretty painful but I guess it's better than the old days when all applications were individual.

Last year, the program coordinator from Johns Hopkins sent out a list of interview dates for many (but not all) of the programs. I think it was through some association of residency directors in Orthopaedics. Some programs don't even decide until november/december when they're going to interview applicants anyway.
