Application Deadline
Applicants interested in this program must apply through ERAS to the “Pediatric Dermatology” (1628080A6), 4 year program (1 year CHOP Prelim year, 3 year Dermatology with Pediatric focus)
The application deadline for our residency program is prior to September 27, 2023 (through ERAS).
Applying to the Three-Year Residency Program through ERAS does not exclude the applicant from applying to this program.
Applicants to the Pediatric Dermatology program are strongly encouraged to have a letter of recommendation in Pediatrics.
Description of Training Program
This new track includes a PGY-1 pediatric internship year at CHOP, and PGY 2-4 dermatology residency position (with dedicated time to pediatric dermatology training throughout the 3-year dermatology residency, including development of a pediatric dermatology outpatient continuity clinic starting as early as PGY1 year).
Strong candidates who are committed to a career in pediatric dermatology are encouraged to apply for this unique opportunity, which requires a combined match. The preliminary pediatric year and dermatology residency years will involve a pediatric dermatology continuity clinic throughout. Graduates of the program will be expected to board certify in General Dermatology (and will not
be board eligible for Pediatrics as a result of this program; if that is of interest, completion of a full pediatrics residency is recommended).
We anticipate most graduates will likely plan to subsequently complete a 1-year Pediatric Dermatology fellowship post residency.
Interviews will occur over a one-day schedule and will include coordinated interviews with both the CHOP Pediatric Residency Directors and Penn Dermatology Faculty.
Applications will be handled through the Department of Dermatology. For more information, please see our website: https://dermatology.upenn.edu/residents/residency-tracks/
