The University of Chicago Medical Center Neurology Residency Program is now offering a joint arrangement for the PGY-1 preliminary year with The University of Chicago Medical Center Department of Internal Medicine, Evanston Hospital Department of Internal Medicine and also with Weiss Hospital Department of Internal Medicine. Interested applicants must apply to these preliminary program separately via ERAS. The joint arrangment with these internal medicine programs should not be viewed as a guarantee that candidates will be offered a preliminary position in one of these programs. Interested applicants must complete a separate interview process (if interested) with these programs.
