We are so excited to begin the long awaited application review! We, like all Residency Programs, will be working to complete our usual application review as quickly and efficiently as possible. We will actively be reviewing as many applications as possible through December. We plan on extending as many interview invitations as we can between mid October through December. If you have not heard from our program regarding your application status by the end of December, please feel free to follow up with us at dgretzinger@ascension.org. Applicants chosen to interview with our program will be notified via email through ERAS.  

Our virtual interviews will run from mid October through mid January.  In support of local and national recommendations, the Department of Pediatrics is solely conducting virtual interviews for the 2025 residency application cycle. Our programs will not grant in-person interviews as per guidance from APPD / COMSEP / AMSPDC / FuturePedsRes / NextGenPediatricians. We abide by their  recommended interview date window.  We do not offer more interviews than we have capacity for, but if you are offered an interview with our program, we ask that you schedule it within three business days.  

Commitment to populations that are under-represented in medicine: Our program is committed to training exceptional pediatric residents from all racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, gender, and sexual orientation backgrounds.
