Applications

We are one of the participating institutions in the Electronic Residency Application System (ERAS)  sponsored by the American Association of Medical Colleges. In order to maintain equality and best evaluate each individual applicant, all communications are done through ERAS.  No direct mailings are accepted outside of mailing our brochure to the applicants that have requested them.

The application process should be initiated by the applicant.  All letters of recommendation are to be sent to your Dean’s Office and they will be responsible for sending them to us through ERAS.  We do not want letters of recommendation mailed directly to us.  The only additional piece of information that we require in that you request an official transcript of your board scores from the various steps of the USMLE to be sent DIRECTLY to us by the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME).  Simply to provide us with the scores in you personal statement does not suffice.  The request for an official transcript can be done through your Dean’s Office and will be sent to us electronically by the NBME.  After review of your completed application, we will offer a select pool of applicants to interview at Stony Brook via e-mail. 

For further information about our application process, please contact our offices at Sherryl.Krulik@stonybrook.edu.
