ERAS® for Medical Schools

The Electronic Residency Application Service® (ERAS®) is an integrated solution to the residency and fellowship application and documents distribution process. It provides applicants with the ability to build and deliver their application and supporting materials either individually or as a package to residency programs. It also provides a streamlined experience for Designated Dean’s Offices, letter of recommendation (LoR) authors, and program directors.
