For rising fourth-year medical students, the whirlwind of the residency application and matching process is about to kick off. It's time to get those ducks in a row. Your career is about to get real. And one of the first formal steps is getting all of your application materials into the MyERAS system. For those not yet familiar with it, the Electronic Residency Application Service, or ERAS, is the system most U.S. residency programs use for a centralized application system. It includes tools for letters of recommendation, filtering programs to apply to, responding to messages from programs, and even scheduling interviews when the time for that comes. MyERAS is the portal that applicants themselves use for their information and materials. And June 6 is when it opens for residency applicants aiming for the 2018 Match.
