The first step to applying to residency programs is to register for application services and match services which apply to you. ERAS Registration-
Before you apply to programs using ERAS you first have to register. In order to do this you must receive an electronic token from the Office of Student Programs & Professional Development. “Tokens” are electronic codes that allow you to register and access MyERAS (your personal workstation in ERAS) online. Tokens will be available on or about July 1, and will be e-mailed to you. This number will be used one time only to access the MyERAS application, at which time the AAMC ID Number will be assigned. Once you obtain your token from our office, you should go to the MyERAS Web site and click on register. After registering you will be assigned an AAMC ID #. We strongly recommend that you place the number in a safe place as you will need it several times during the course of this process. If you have not received a token (after July 1) please e-mail the following information to d-hill4@northwestern.edu. - Full name
- Year of graduation
- Date of birth
- E-mail address that you intend to use during the residency/match process.
