not have a supplemental application.
Supporting documents are required and should be directed to ERAS:

3. USMLE or COMLEX Transcripts. Scores of 80 or
higher on Step 1 and 2 will be considered.

Twenty four months or less graduation date from medical school. Only applicants who have taken and received scores for USMLE II or COMLEX II by the time the match list goes in will be considered.
International Medical Graduates must be ECFMG certified. One year of U.S. clinical experience is required (not an observership) for students from a non ACGME-approved school. The program will sponsor J1 Visas only for students matched through ERAS.
To obtain information on ERAS, U.S. medical school students should contact the Dean's Office or Student Affairs Office and foreign medical school students should contact the ECFMG.
Each application is reviewed and considered as a whole and will be accepted through December 31st. We will send qualified candidates an invitation to visit our program.
When candidates visit, they tour our facilities, meet with faculty and residents, and socialize at informal gatherings. If lodging or specific needs are required, candidates should let us know in a timely manner..
Each class has twelve residents at UMKC (Truman Medical Center Lakewood location).
If you are going through the Osteopathic match, you can apply for our AOA Internship, although we would encourage you to apply to both if you are going through the NRMP match as well.

PT / Shared Residency You may share residency with another resident.
Many of our residents
have done this so they
have more time with their families.
The schedule is a month
on, off a month, for you to
get all of the training you need for a successful residency.
We are one of the few residency programs in the country to offer these positions. This flexibility is designed to make your life
as a resident easier.
