Application Process

Dr. Murray speaking to a group

Applicants must be eligible for licensure in the State of Texas. If there are any questions regarding this in the application process, inquiries should be made directly to the Texas Medical Board. The Department participates in the National Resident Matching Program and the ResidencyCAS Centralized Application Service. Only applications submitted through the ResidencyCAS Centralized Application Service will be considered (Program name: U Texas HSC – San Antonio – Obstetrics and Gynecology, NRMP ID: 1722220C0). Candidates are selected on the basis of their application, transcript, letters of recommendation, and interviews.

The following items must be received through the ResidencyCAS system (accessible at your Dean’s office, or for international medical graduates through the ECFMG) by September 25th in order for your application process to be complete:

  • Application Form
  • Medical Student Performance Evaluation (“Dean’s Letter”)
  • Medical School Transcript
  • USMLE or COMLEX Transcript and Exam History
  • OB/GYN Department Chair’s Letter of Reference (we will accept SLOE in lieu of letter)
  • Two Other Reference Letters (we will accept SLOE in lieu of letter)
  • Personal Statement
  • Photograph
  • Valid ECFMG certification for international medical graduates

Applicants who are judged to be competitive after review of their credentials are invited for interview. Interviews are held virtually where applicants will have a chance to meet residents, fellows, faculty, and other departmental staff. For the 2024-2025 application season, all interviews will take place virtually on the following dates:

“I feel very lucky to have trained at UTHSCSA. I chose this program because my interview felt like coming home. As a resident, I received excellent training, ready to tackle anything upon graduation. The residents and faculty are incredibly supportive, even on your worst days.”
