      • Three letters of recommendation are required (1. from your most recent residency/fellowship program director, 2. a recent supervisor other than your residency/fellowship program director, and 3. one additional letter from a clinical supervisor who can attest to your abilities). It is preferred that the letters come from the writer directly.

  • Offer Process

    • Priority Application Window is July 17 - November 1, 2024 (we recommend not waiting until the November deadline to apply so that you have ample time to schedule interviews). 
    • Interview with programs that reach out to you.
    • Create your list of preferred programs after you've completed all interviews so that you are prepared to give a timely response if you are offered a position.
    • Offer Date is December 2, 2024. All programs will send out offers to their top applicant between 10am-1pm ET.
      • If you receive an offer from your top choice, let the program director know as soon as possible and decline all other offers so that other applicants may be given offers.
      • If you do not receive an offer on December 2, you may receive one later in the week or the following week(s) as programs go through their list of applicants.
      • As positions get filled, the status of programs will be updated on the OMFC website so you can see where there are still openings.
      • You may apply to additional programs that have openings if your top choices did not offer the position to you.

  • Note:

    • Obesity Medicine fellowship programs do not participate in the Medical Specialties Matching Program; therefore, it is likely that some programs will make offers after December 2, as many candidates apply to multiple programs.
    • Individual programs may choose to accept applications after the deadline, if necessary, and may request additional information from applicants.
