The U-M Medical School Department of Family Medicine Residency program is privileged to participate in the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP) and accept all of our applications through Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).
The application deadline is November 1st.
Currently, we offer thirteen first-year positions, and applicants may choose to rank “Family Med: AnnArbor,” and/or the Spanish Language and Community Medicine Track. Spanish fluency is required for the Spanish Language and Community Medicine Track.
Couples Match
If your partner has received an interview at the University of Michigan or a nearby program and you have not yet heard from our program, please contact us for an application review.
Letters of invitation for interviews will be sent via e-mail once your application is received and reviewed. Interviews are held on Mondays and Fridays through mid-December.
Recruitment for our Family Medicine Residency Program will be conducted virtually this year. We anticipate that all of our interviews and site tours will be conducted over a virtual meeting platform and applicants will not need to travel to Ann Arbor to apply. Thank you for your understanding.
Note: Our match list will be finalized and sent to our DIO by the end of January. We will conduct optional second look visits both virtually and in-person in February after the program’s rank list has been locked. Second look attendance will not affect ranking and will only be meant to give applicants a chance to better understand our community. The program will not have knowledge of who has signed up for the optional second look prior to submission of the program’s rank list.

We offer a unique month-long elective experience for medical students from other schools to work with us and experience family medicine at the University of Michigan. Students work alongside our residents on our family medicine inpatient services.
These experiences give visiting students the broadest experience possible to learn our approach to delivering high-quality care to our patients and innovative education to our residents and students.
Applications for medical student visiting rotations are accepted through AAMC’s VSLO service.
The University of Michigan offers highly competitive salaries and generous benefits to our fellows and advanced trainees. Trainee salary will be commensurate with that of a House Officer at an equivalent level of training based on the HOA contract.
