*According to their schedule, your designated dean's office will upload
the MSPE to the ERAS PostOffice. The MSPE (along with other ERAS documents)
are transmitted from the Dean's Office Workstation (DWS) to the ERAS PostOffice,
and are placed in the programs' mailboxes. Most uploaded files become
available immediately; the MSPEs, however, are held until October 15th
for osteopathic residency programs and November 1st for allopathic residency
programs.
Program Application Deadlines
ERAS does not set program application deadlines as the individual programs
set the deadlines. You should contact programs directly for their deadlines.
The ERAS PostOffice, however, closes on May 31st every year to prepare
for the next ERAS application season. At that time all of our servers
are purged of all applications and supporting documents. ERAS does not
maintain records from year to year.
