Application Process
We welcome applications from students of all training backgrounds. Our primary goal is to recruit the best applicants with a diverse background.
All Baylor Pediatric programs participate in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP). Please submit your application via the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). We do not accept applications outside of the Match. The application deadline is Nov. 30.
The categorical program and L.E.A.D. use one ERAS application. You must apply to each program individually to be considered for matching in each program, but your interview experience will be combined. To apply to L.E.A.D., select the Peds/PC Leadership Program (Program Code 1716320C4).
Application Evaluation
There is not a single formula that effectively predicts who will be an outstanding resident. Therefore, we take a holistic approach to evaluating applications for consideration of an interview invitation. The factors we consider are included on our How to Apply webpage.
Stipends
Stipend levels are at the national average, but Houston's cost of living ranks among the lowest of metropolitan areas in the United States.
View the stipends and benefit information on the Baylor College of Medicine’s graduate medical education website.
Recreational Benefits
The Baylor College of Medicine Pediatrics Residency Program offers many other benefits that allow you to enjoy your peers outside clinical duties and explore Houston as well.
