Request to Approve a Transfer Resident/Fellow

Application Consideration

Applications will be considered on an ongoing basis with an eight-week turnaround time due to requirements for onboarding, background checks, drug testing, hospital access, and University access.

Solicitation of applications from individual trainees currently under contract with another training program is inappropriate. If a program director is approached about a career change by a resident/fellow enrolled in another training program, the program director should encourage the resident/fellow to also notify their program office and UB GME early in the planning stage.

Files of residents that transfer into programs are scrutinized by ACGME reviewers. Citations are issued if all documents are not accurate and complete.

Complete the form below. It will be sent to the UB GME Accreditation Team for review by accreditation, finance, and UB legal.
