Applicant interviews are by invitation only. Following the selection committee’s review of your application, you will be notified when you have been selected for an interview.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us anytime.

International Applicants

Effective January 1, 2020, the Medical Board of California will no longer issue Postgraduate Training Authorization Letters (PTAL) to International Medical School Graduates. Therefore, it is not a requirement to apply to our program. To qualify, the medical school needs to be recognized by the Medical Board of California.

At this time, we do not sponsor J1, H1B, or other types of visas.
