Michigan Med-Peds Cluster Interviews

Recognizing the difficulty and expense applicants have in traveling around the country the Michigan Med-Peds programs are working together in a system that allows applicants to travel to Michigan once and interview in four programs (MSU Grand Rapids, MSU Flint, MSU Kalamazoo, and William Beaumont Hospital) over a one week period. With one contact we will confirm your invitation to interview in all four programs, coordinate the interview dates, arrange accommodations at each location, and assist you in arranging your travel within Michigan between programs. Interested applicants should apply to all four programs. When contacted about an interview the interested applicant should notify the program of their interest in the "cluster interviews".
