Recommended Standards for the OB/GYN Application and Interview Processes
The Council on Resident Education in Obstetrics and Gynecology (CREOG) and the Association of Professors of Gynecology and Obstetrics (APGO) recommend these specialty-wide standards for the 2025-2026 Ob-Gyn residency application cycle.
2025-2026 Application Cycle Guidelines:
- Set the application deadline to September 24, 2025
- Release all interview offers on October 28, 2025 (with rolling offers to follow depending on the response each program receives)
- Limit program interview invitations to the number of interview slots available
- Allow a minimum of 48 hours after an interview invitation email has been sent for the applicant to accept or decline
- Begin interviews no earlier than November 1, 2025
- Release final status to applicants (interview, reject, waitlist) no later than November 26, 2025
- Commit to virtual interviews for all applicants, including local students
- One Standardized Letter of Evaluation (SLOE) will continue to be part of the application package. The SLOE will be integrated in ResidencyCAS and directly filled out by the letter writer in the application platform. The SLOE will replace one of the traditional letters of recommendation (LOR) or the Chair's letter, applicants should still include two to three other traditional LORs based on each program's requirement. The updated 2024-2025 SLOE template and applicable resources can be found at https://apgo.org/page/rrrapplicant
- Program Signaling: Each applicant may choose to send a total of 18 signals with their application (3 gold signals for programs of highest interest and 15 silver signals for programs of high interest)
- We are utilizing a tool with AMA FEIDA for students to use to explore residency programs called the Alignment Check Index (ACI). Programs that participate in this tool provide their recruiting priorities in 6 categories. Applicants will not see the program priorities. Applicants will be able to enter certain information about their background, experiences and academics and receive a list of programs that may align with the programs' recruiting priorities. The ACI tool and AMA FREDA search filters are intended to complement personal advising and other current tools available to applicants as the applicant considers their career interests and learning styles.
We hope these changes will help students and programs by making the application process easier.
Thank you for all you do for our students/applicants and please provide feedback or let us know if you have questions at [email protected].
