Interview Process & Jefferson Visits

In accordance with Jefferson GME policy and recommendations from the Association of Professors in Dermatology, we will conduct all residency interviews virtually for the 2025 NRMP match. Scheduled selected applicants will be provided instructions via email on how to join us for the virtual interview in advance of their interview date.

Also in accordance with Jefferson GME policy, we will offer interviewed applicants the opportunity for an optional, non-evaluative in-person Second Look visit to our program in Philadelphia. These opportunities will be offered after completion of all virtual interviews and after submission and certification of our NRMP rank list. The rank order list will be submitted and certified with no knowledge of upcoming planned visits by applicants. To arrange a visit, please email the program coordinator directly. 

Important information for our residents is found through our Resident Information page.
