HOW TO GET FELLOWSHIP IN USA
2
PLAN EARLY
  • If you are thinking of getting a fellowship in
    the US, it is best to start planning early. The
    earlier you can decide which subspecialty you
    want to pursue, the earlier you can start your
    research and identify mentors in that field.
  • Also start doing the outline of your fellowship
    personal statement, this way you have time to
    redo your piece.

3
FIND A MENTOR
  • Identifying the right mentor to do your
    recommendation letter is important. You have to
    inform your chosen mentor ahead of time, so he
    will be able to write a good piece. You can also
    give him list of some significant information
    about yourself.
  • Another significant piece is your radiology
    personal statement. Here you are able to show off
    your abilities and skills as well.

4
RESEARCH
  • Your research accomplishments also matters. Show
    them that despite your hectic internship
    schedule, you are still motivated to a lot time
    and effort to pursue research.
  • Like in your cardiology fellowship personal
    statement, researching about the institution you
    are applying to is important. This will allow you
    to tailor fit your material accordingly.

5
APPLY EARLY
  • Even you have the best of the best requirements,
    if you have not submitted them on time, it will
    just end up on the trash bin. Keep in mind that
    fellowship programs have limited spots.
  • This applies too with your cardiology personal
    statement. The earlier the better.

6
COLLECT INFORMATION
  • This is the time where you use your social
    skills. Talk to your senior about the fellowship
    application. Ask for good advise on the
    disadvantage and advantages of different
    programs.
  • Make sure that you fellowship letter of intent is
    clear and brief. This way you are able to grab
    attention of your reader.

ECFMG CERTIFICATION
  • The ECFMG(Educational Commission for Foreign
    Medical Graduates) established the International
    Credentials Services (EICS),in the year 2000, to
    help international medical students secure the
    records and credentials necessary to apply for
    licensure in foreign countries. You must secure
    this certification.
  • Make sure you proofread your nephrology personal
    statement to submitting it.

8
VISA REQUIREMENTS
  • According to sfmatch.org, any non-U.S. citizen
    wishing to participate in a U.S. graduate medical
    education program must possess a visa that
    permits direct patient care.
  • Depending on the policies of your selected
    institution, a a J-1 visa or a H1 B visa is
    necessary.
  • A fellowship personal statement is a significant
    to your application, it must show your abilities
    by demonstration.

PREPARATION IS KEY
  • There are several requirements in applying for a
    fellowship program in the US. And thinking ahead
    will be a great advantage for earning the spot.
    There is nothing better than preparing early. So
    if you are planning to be a fellow in the US
    start planning as early as possible.
  • Do the same with your nephrology personal
    statement. Have it done early so you are able to
    revise it until you are satisfied with your piece.

    some, but let us be your guide in doing a great
