Welcome Incoming Residents and Fellows!

This page contains all of the information you need to get started ...

Step I: Know your Program Coordinator
(click here for list by program)

Your Program Coordinator is your administrative contact to your residency/fellowship program. Your Program Coordinator will also have program-specific information for you.

Step II: Licensing in Nevada

In order to practice medicine in Nevada, you will need to have a medical license. The MD and DO applications can be assessed by clicking on the appropriate link below.

Due to very sensitive time constraints, completed (typed) applications must be in the Program Coordinator's Office by March 24, 2009.

The Forms enable you to type your information directly to the form. After completion please print and sign as well as obtain necessary notary procedures. We cannot accept handwritten incomplete (including missing support documents) applications. Please make sure all your requested documents accompany your completed application. Mail your original application and supporting materials (if applicable) to your Program Coordinator by the time specified above.

PLEASE NOTE: Keep a copy of the application for records as some of the supporting materials may be requested again.

Step III: Forms

There are many different forms that you will need to complete to start your residency or fellowship process. First download the CHECKLIST. This will serve as a guide to help you account for your documents as you complete and print them. Next Click on the UNSOM GRID that will give you access to the required forms. Only complete the paperwork for your program. The forms are indicated by an X. If you do not see an X, you do not have to fill out a document.

Once you have located the necessary forms and completed them, send the complete packet to the Program Coordinator by April 8, 2009.
