Welcome to OB/GYN!
We are so excited you are interested in this career choice. Our goal is to provide information to help you make the best career choice for you, then support and guide you through the application, interview, rank list, and transition to internship.
MS4 Courses
You can find information about our fourth year electives here. All will require permission to register, which you can obtain by contacting Natalie Moore.
Group Advising Series
We also have a group advising series, where we meet as a group with fourth year students applying in OB/GYN to discuss topics relevant to your application.
The dates for this year are as follows:
- Application preparation – May 19, 5:30-6:30 pm
- Program selection – July 20, 5:30-6:30 pm
- Interview preparation – Sept 21, 5:30-6:30 pm
- Mock interviews – Oct 27, 5:30-6:30 pm
- Preparing your rank list – Jan 26, 5:30-6:30 pm
At this time these sessions will occur via Zoom (more information to come).
Mentorship
Our goal is to provide individual guidance in addition to our group advising series, and we match each student with a 1:1 mentor. We would like to pair up students with mentors as soon as they feel reasonably sure that they plan to choose OB/GYN as a specialty, even if that’s well before your fourth year.
Please contact Natalie Moore to help arrange mentorship. Not sure if you want to choose OB/GYN? We can help with that, too. We are happy to accommodate shadowing or meeting with an OB/GYN to discuss lifestyle and to answer questions.
Research
If you are interested in doing research within our department, please contact Sarah Elliott at sarah.elliott@hsc.utah.edu to learn about options and to be paired with a research project and research mentor.
Application
You will need your home school to give you a token (ID) so you can log in and start your application. Once you can log in you can review the VSAS Website and start looking at dates to apply to each rotation.
