Information for Residency Applicants

Applications to the Cornell Neurological Surgery Residency Program are accepted solely through the Electronic Residency Application Services (ERAS). Please submit all required documents, such as letters of recommendation, undergraduate transcript, reprints, etc. via ERAS only.

The PGY-1 year is now a categorical year of training under the direction of the Neurological Surgery Department. It is no longer necessary to match and interview separately with General Surgery for the PGY-1 Internship year.

We continue to accept applicants with ECFMG certification, however we only accept J-1 Visas.
