ERAS E-mail Series

New specialties require extra attention and constant communication to ensure a smooth and collaborative transition for coming online with the ERAS service. The ERAS E-mail Series keeps new specialty programs and users engaged and informed throughout their first year with the service. The series reviews information important to all users, and especially those unfamiliar with ERAS and how it fits into their overall recruitment plan. Topics selected are based on common questions and concerns of new users to ERAS.

ERAS Newsletters

The ERAS Coming Online newsletter introduces newly participating specialties to the ERAS service, and provides important information to help new programs prepare for their first application season using ERAS. It includes general information about ERAS and answers frequently asked questions from new ERAS users. It is the first of many important correspondences from the ERAS Director to program directors.
