How to apply to the Tufts Medicine Orthopaedic Residency Program
Applicants must submit their materials through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) of the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). A USMLE transcript is required for every application. Applicants must provide at least three letters of recommendation, with a maximum of four.
For the 2026 ERAS® cycle, the MyERAS application incorporates the previous supplemental materials, including:
- Geographic preferences (by region and urban or rural setting)
- Most meaningful experiences and other impactful life events, if applicable
- Program signals
For the 2025–2026 Match year, all applications must be submitted through ERAS by October 1, 2025. Completed applications will be reviewed by the Tufts Medicine Resident Selection Committee, and applicants invited for interviews will be notified after review. All interviews will be held in person on December 12 and 13, 2025.
We seek residents who demonstrate strong academic achievement, leadership and interpersonal skills.
